Raw food wraps are nutrient-dense, extremely family-friendly and great for quick meals. Everyone can design their own wrap according to their taste preferences.

These wraps were inspired by Mexican cuisine, where they’re prepared with a tortilla made of cornmeal. In raw food cuisine, wraps can be rolled in a few different ways. 

• Vegetable tortillas
• Nori leaves
• Cabbage or lettuce leaves

We’ll start with vegetable wraps

Vegetable wraps are great to make in advance. When needed, simply top the thin patties with finely chopped vegetables and lettuce, dip and wrap.
