Recipe of the Day Vietnamese Salad Rolls

METHOD
Sweet and Sour Mango Sauce
Blend all ingredients in a blender or food processor. Adjust seasoning’s as desired.

Spicy Tahini 
Blend all ingredients in a food processor until smooth.

Salad Rolls
Lay a chard, cabbage, or collard leaf on a plate or cutting board. Fillet the thick stem carefully using a paring knife. This will allow you to roll the leaf easier without it breaking.

Lay two leaves of lettuce on the inside of the chard leaf and fill with remaining ingredients as desired. Lay another couple of lettuce leaves over the filling and roll. Serve with sauces.

Cooked Variation:  You can wrap the rolls in rice paper, which is very easy to use. Simply dip a sheet into hot water for a few seconds then remove, shake off excess water, and lay it on a flat surface. Add your fillings and roll carefully. For a heartier cooked meal, add in organic tempeh.
