I’ve been making my way through Kimberly Snyder’s newest book, The Beauty Detox Foods. It’s filled with superfood recipes to promote healthy skin and hair and transform your body. This recipe is full of a variety of different flavors and great to make ahead and store in individual containers.

Taco Tuesday

I have a serious weakness for Mexican dishes! I put a healthy spin on your typical Taco Tuesday, minus the calories, but full of flavor. The superfood loaded dish makes it a guilt-free indulgence.

Collard wraps are a lunchtime staple for me. Quinoa and beans are a great base, but adding the right veggies and spices takes it from bland to incredible. This superfood packed recipe has a serious boost of flavor and rings in at only 284 calories.

Yields: 1 Entree Size Serving

2 Whole Collard Green Leaves (with stem)

1/2 C Quinoa, cooked

1/2 C Black Beans, cooked (I used dried to avoid sodium)

1/4 Green Bell Pepper, Steamed

1 oz Artichoke Hearts, Steamed

1 T Fresh Guacamole

2 T Daiya Pepperjack (a dairy, casein, soy & gluten-free cheese)

  • Cut each collard green leaf off of the stem, into two pieces (four pieces total)
  • Fill with all ingredients (or ingredients of your choice)
  • Microwave for 45 seconds to steam collard green and melt cheese.
  • Roll up into a wrap and enjoy!

This recipe is incredibly filling and packed with superfoods and protein. It’s vegan, gluten-free and soy-free. It makes for a great post-workout lunch!

Nutritional Content includes all ingredients & 4 collard wraps: Calories: 284 | Fat: 7.1 g | *Sodium: 183.7 mg | Carbs: 43 g | Fiber: 12.6 g  | Protein: 12.3 g

(*Based on using dried beans without salt)
