Rinse and dry 8 large butter lettuce leaves. Set them aside on a plate or tray.
Peel the carrot and julienne it into thin matchstick-sized strips. Repeat this process with the cucumber and the red bell pepper.
Shred the red cabbage finely, and chop the green onions into small rounds. Roughly chop the cilantro leaves.
Prepare the almond butter sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the raw almond butter, coconut aminos, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, red pepper flakes, salt, and water until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency by adding more water if needed.
To assemble the wraps, lay a butter lettuce leaf flat. Add a few strips of carrot, cucumber, red bell pepper, and some shredded red cabbage. Sprinkle with green onions and a few cilantro leaves.
Drizzle a spoonful of the almond butter sauce over the vegetables.
Fold the sides of the lettuce leaf inward and roll it up gently. Repeat with the remaining lettuce leaves and veggies.
Serve immediately with extra almond butter sauce on the side for dipping!
