bare necessities: salad + veggie roll
my daily ritual relies on fruits from the avocado tree, endless roots of carrots, buds from baby romaines, the green asparagus plant......all quite underscored in a sprouted whole grain tortilla and not to be missed are those lively sprouts to make everything new again.....
This salad + veggie roll has been one of my favorites lately. I hesitate in saying the word 'wrap' since the ones I have tried at the restaurants try to imply they are healthy but often times I find over burdened with excessively cloying greasy substances.
Now don't get me wrong....I love oil in my cooking....can't do without ~ but I love really good olive oil.....sesame oil.....grape seed oil and even sunflower oil.
I just don't like recycled regurgitated hydrogenated oils that seem to burden our foods.
Meanwhile.....here's my favorite lunch time ritual:
salad + veggie roll

*Ezekial sprouted whole grain flourless tortillas or similar to your liking
*baby romaines or romaine lettuce leaves
*alfalfa sprouts
*avocado slices
*carrot sticks
*asparagus or sliced cucumbers or whatever you prefer
*optional: veganaise grapeseed oil dressing ~ omg; i luv this stuff....tastes + has the scent of mayonnaise! this is eggless and very heart & body healthy.
*optional: a few slices of meat of your choice
Roll forward tightly......you can cut in half with a sharp knife and wrap it in plastic wrap to take with you or enjoy now!
For lunch on the run ~ I end up eating two of these to fill me up.
Delicious with a simple dipping sauce made with a shot of soy sauce + shot of sriracha or hot sauce of your liking.
someone told me that alfalfa sprouts combined with avocado creates a taste sensation that is a match made in heaven......I do agree.
