Rainbow Hummus & Avocado Collard Wraps

Easy collard green wraps stuffed with hummus, avocado, walnuts, and rainbow veggies. Perfect to throw together for a light lunch or dinner!

It’s Thursday and this post is a good one, friends!

I’m sharing a recipe that has been my favorite go-to lunch ensemble for the new year.

I first threw it together in a fit of post Hot Yoga Flow hanger on New Year’s Day.

One of those give me everything in the fridge and I don’t care what it looks like moments.

Luckily, it looked pretty good and tasted even better.

These Rainbow Hummus & Avocado Collard Wraps are so easy to load up for quick lunches and will leave you feeling light, energized, and GREEN.

I’ve laid out the basics, but the blueprint is totally customizable to make it yours with whatever you have on hand.

Let’s wrap up the week, shall we?

Curried Cranberry Apple Chickpea Salad Cups

By Flora & Vino 4 Comments

1-bowl curried chickpea salad with apples, pecans, cranberries, and a delicious spicy yogurt base. Serve with radicchio cups for a fun lunch, snack, or appetizer.

I’m writing this post with the sniffles and a tickly throat…all of the telltale symptoms that a cold is coming for me.

Doh.

Sometimes I like being sick. Is that a weird thing to say?

OK, maybe I could do without the physical symptoms, but being a highly active person, sometimes I forget to slow down.

Being sick quite literally forces me to take some time to rejuvenate both my body and my mind.

Lounging on the couch eating nicecream while binge-watching This Is Us (who else is obsessed???) sounds pretty great right about now, but we’re about to road trip to Indiana to visit my extended family and there’s a lot to get done around here.

Mostly in the form of food preparation because when I travel, I tend to take my kitchen with me.

These Curried Cranberry Apple Chickpea Salad Cups are on my list of easy things to prepare for the trip.

You’re going to love whipping this mixture up for easy fall lunching!

And hey, curry is good for colds, right?

Romaine Tempeh Tacos with Cashew Sour Cream

By Flora & Vino Leave a Comment

Delicious plant-based Romaine Tempeh Tacos with Cashew Sour Cream made with “tempeh taco meat” and a creamy cashew-based sour cream.

Do you feel like you’re being pummeled with pumpkins?

If you do, don’t worry, I put orange on the back-burner for this post to share a classic.

I was in Michael’s recently picking up some photography props and commented to the cashier about the Halloween display already in plain sight.

“Oh”, the girl said, like that was nothing, “The entire Christmas spread is set up in back.”

Woah, now. One holiday at a time!

And it just so happens that today is one of my favorite holiday that comes around on a weekly basis…

It’s Taco Tuesday, so let’s make Romaine Tempeh Tacos with Cashew Sour Cream!

When I first joined the workforce after college, I went through a major Taco Bell phase.

The kind of enduring phase that leaves you with an embarrassingly large ziplock bag stuffed with leftover hot sauce packets.

I guess it was the convenience of the whole thing, and tacos were a succinct meal decidedly more fun than a sandwich or salad.

On multiple occasions I eagerly took intricate taco orders for my coworkers and left the office guilt-free to hit the drive-through.

FYI, walking through the office around lunchtime wafting the smell of spices and fried food while handing out tacos will make you everyone’s best bud.

So, wouldn’t it be cool if they handed out Romaine Tempeh Tacos with Cashew Sour Cream at a taco drive-through?

Well, they hand them out at my house…

“Eggy” Veggie Chickpea Salad Sandwiches

By Flora & Vino 1 Comment

“Eggy” veggie chickpea salad sandwiches with nutritional yeast and “black salt”. Perfect on a sandwich, crackers, or by the spoonful.

Labor Day Weekend, WHAT?

Does anyone else feel like time is literally flying?

I think back to the hours I spent in high school complaining of boredom, staring up at the stark white ceiling from my pink quilted bed, wondering what the heck to do with my day.

Boredom.

Yawn.

Sometimes I wish I could experience it again, those hours that seemed to expand before me like an accordion of nothingness.

I don’t know about you guys, but time is pretty much the most precious thing to me in my adult life.

If plans fall through and there’s suddenly a gap in my full day, it feels like I won the lottery.

Dance parties in the kitchen ensue and Harper barks along.

But for the most part, friends, I remember how happy I am to be stuffing the hours I do have with chickpea salad sandwich trials.

I hope you’ll be able to “stuff” this recipe into your Labor Day Prep because it’s the perfect farewell to summer.

Let’s all slow down for a freakin’ minute and make these “Eggy” Veggie Chickpea Salad Sandwiches, shall we?

Tempeh Burgers with Portobello Mushroom Buns

By Flora & Vino 3 Comments

Marinaded tempeh burgers served between portobello mushroom buns with classic toppings. The perfect gluten-free and vegan alternative for summer grilling!

I’ll be honest, friends.

I didn’t actually pick the epic pictured stack up and eat it sandwich-style.

It was more of a knife and fork kind of a meal.

But that doesn’t make the combo any less respected as a burger.

On the contrary, friends, only the most bad-ass epic burgers have to be eaten with utensils.

Burgers like these Tempeh Burgers with Portobello Mushroom Buns.

Green Chickpea Salad Collard Wraps

By Flora & Vino 2 Comments

Green chickpea salad wraps made with an avocado and almond milk yogurt base. These wraps are perfect for a light refreshing lunch!

It’s HOT here.

I open the windows in the morning to let warm air in while slurping down a frosty shake, quickly shutting them post-brain freeze because it’s just too humid.

It’s all OK because I have the perfect recipe to share for a heat wave.

Two firsts are going down with this post— first wrap AND first chickpea salad!

I’ve been making these Green Chickpea Salad Collard Wraps for the perfect light yet satisfying summer plate.

The first time I tried collard ‘wraps’ I was totally skeptical.

You want me to stuff all of my sandwich toppings into…that?

I’m sorry I so grossly underestimated you, collards.

After stuffing them with copious amounts of this Green Chickpea Salad, I’m pretty sure these sturdy greens can withstand anything!

Allow me to convince you.
