Mock Tuna Wraps

Living in Hong Kong allowed me to connect with a variety of Asian green vegetables, one of my favorites is the Chinese Kale kai-lan (??). It’s local and accesable and its taste is a bit sweet. Using the leaves of this veggie can help make Raw wraps quite easy and yummy..

Here is one of my favorite recipe:

For the Mock Tuna Paste:

1 Cup soaked almonds (12 hrs no skin)
1.5 Cups soaked sun?ower seeds
1/2 Lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 Cup of water with 1 tbs of agave syrup.

Mix all top ingredients on a high speed blender until smooth paste, then add:

Wet Ingredients:
1/4 Cup Red bell pepper cut into small pieces
1/3 Cup of purple onion? cut into small pieces
1/3 Cup of italian parsley? cut into small pieces
1/3 Cup of pickles preserved in vinegar
1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper or chipotle chili powder
1/3 Cup of carrots or celery
1/2 tsp of? kelp or seaweed powder (use a coffee grinder with any favorite seaweed)
Mix wet ingredients with nut paste until its good!

In this type of weather, cooling and hidrating living foods are quite good! Well they are always good in any type of weather!
