INGREDIENTS
- 8-10 brown rice wraps
- 6-8 nori sheets
- 1 pound tempeh
- 2 carrots
- 1/2 cucumber
- 2 cups greens
- 1 avocado
- 1/4 cup thai basil leaves

- 3/4 cup almond butter
- 1 Tablespoon garlic chili sauce
- 1 teaspoon tamari
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 drop lime essential oil

- water, to consistency
DIRECTIONS
- Cut your vegetables in long strips.
- Cook tempeh in a skillet with 1 teaspoon coconut oil or avocado oil, browning both sides.
- Soak rice wraps in water for 30 seconds or less. Use a bowl filled with enough water to cover the wrap.
- After soaking the rice wraps, they will be wet and sticky. Lay the wrap flat and place ingredients on one end of wrap.
-
Begin wrapping the end closest to you over the filling. Then wrap each side towards the middle to seal the ends. Keep rolling to enclose the ingredients in the rice wrapper.
- Repeat until all ingredients are wrapped!
-
For the sauce: Blend all ingredients in blender and store in fridge in a glass container (mason jars work well)
