Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Large lettuce leaves (e.g., romaine or butter lettuce)
- 1 medium-sized, peeled and julienned Jicama
- 2 medium-sized, peeled and julienned Carrots
- 1 medium-sized, julienned Red bell pepper
- 1 medium-sized, julienned Cucumber
- 1 large, ripe Avocado
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 small, minced Garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon, for garnish (optional) Sesame seeds
Instructions
Wash and pat dry the lettuce leaves. Set them aside on a clean plate.
Peel and julienne the jicama, carrots, red bell pepper, and cucumber into thin strips. Place them in a mixing bowl and toss gently to combine.
To prepare the avocado dressing, scoop the avocado into a blender or food processor.
Add the Greek yogurt, lime juice, cilantro, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to the blender with the avocado.
Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed.
Lay one lettuce leaf flat on a clean surface. Place a small handful of the julienned vegetable mixture toward the center of the leaf.
Drizzle a small amount of avocado dressing over the vegetables.
Roll the lettuce leaf around the filling, tucking in the sides as you go to form a neat roll. Repeat with the remaining lettuce leaves and filling.
Arrange the rolls on a serving platter and sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired, for garnish.
Serve the lettuce rolls with the remaining avocado dressing on the side for dipping. Enjoy!
