Servings 4 wraps
Calories 478kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups rotisserie chicken
- ½ cup mayo
- ¼ cup dried cranberries
- 1 apple chopped
- 2 ounces pistachios without shells
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 collard green leaves
- Ice bath
Instructions
- Trim the stem off of your collard greens so it's flush with the leaf.
- Blanch Your Collard Green Leaves (optional): Bring a large shallow pan with water to a slow boil. Add one leaf for 30-60 seconds then place the leaf in the ice bath for 10 seconds. Repeat for every leaf.
- In a large bowl mix mayo, dried cranberries, chopped apples, pistachios, garlic, onion, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
- Stack two leaves on top of each other, fill with ¼ of chicken mixture and roll them up. If you blanch them, they will stay together on their own. If you don't, you will need a band or toothpick. I usually just use rubber bands!
- Eat immediately or consume within 3 days.
Notes
To keep the extra collard greens fresh, just place paper towels in between them and store them in a plastic airtight bag (like a freezer bag.)
