Start by preparing the collard green leaves. Remove the thick stems from the bottom of each leaf to make it easier to fold them into a wrap.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork until smooth. Stir in lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to create the avocado mayo. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Lay down one collard green leaf flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous spoonful of avocado mayo over the center of the leaf.
Layer on the prepared vegetables: start with a handful of julienned carrots, then add cucumbers, bell peppers, red cabbage, cilantro, and a few slices of red onion.
Fold the sides of the collard leaf over the filling, then tightly roll it from the bottom to form a wrap. Use a toothpick, if needed, to hold the wrap together.
Repeat the process with the remaining collard leaves and filling ingredients.
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to one day. These wraps are great for a quick lunch or healthy snack.
