Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 leaves Large lettuce leaves (e.g., romaine or butter lettuce)
- 1 medium Cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Tomato, thinly sliced
- 0.25 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
- 10 olives Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
- 1 medium Avocado, mashed
- 0.5 cup Artichoke hearts, chopped
- 0.25 cup Sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Tahini
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and pat the lettuce leaves dry. Set aside to use as the wrap for the sandwich.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado and mix in the lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined; this will act as the sandwich spread.
Prepare the filling ingredients: thinly slice the cucumber, tomato, and red onion, chop the artichoke hearts and sun-dried tomatoes, and slice the Kalamata olives if not already done.
Lay out two large lettuce leaves, overlapping slightly, to form the base layer for each sandwich wrap.
Spread a layer of the mashed avocado mixture onto the lettuce leaves.
Evenly distribute the cucumber slices, tomato slices, red onion, olives, artichoke hearts, and sun-dried tomatoes on top of the avocado spread.
Drizzle a small amount of tahini over the fillings and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of Mediterranean flavor.
Top the fillings with another layer of lettuce leaves before folding or rolling the lettuce wraps tightly to create the sandwich. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.
Repeat the process for the second sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy a fresh, veggie-packed Paleo and Vegan Mediterranean sandwich!
