Summer Lettuce Wraps

Published Thursday, Jul 9, 2020

In the summertime, we have a ton of fresh, delicious produce ready to eat, and the last thing we want is to heat up the kitchen using our oven. Enter: lettuce wraps! These delicious wraps are packed with summer’s goodness and are also really refreshing. Our version also features plant protein from hummus, beans, and cheese, and healthy fats from avocado to give you lots of energy. Chef Aaron cooked these up during our first week of virtual summer camp with a little help from two awesome students demonstrating in the SEEDS kitchen. Try them at home for a crisp, seasonal meal and switch things up with your own combinations!
