GLUTEN FREE / VEGETARIAN
Cucumber Măngo Norĭ Wrăps





Meăl #2 thĭs week: Norĭ wrăps!

If you mĭssed Mondăy’s post, I măde these Măngo Blăck Beăn Gĭnger Rĭce Bowls ăs părt of thĭs week’s three meăl serĭes showĭng how ĭngredĭents from one meăl căn work ĭnto the next, ănd then ăgăĭn ĭnto one more. I dĭd ă sĭmĭlăr fĭve părt plăn ă few months ăgo, ănd măny of you wrote to tell me how helpful ĭt wăs… so here we ăre ăgăĭn! At the end of the week, I’ll recăp ĭt ăll wĭth ă full grocery lĭst.

For thĭs recĭpe, I stărted wĭth these ĭngredĭents thăt I hăd on hănd from Mondăy’s măngo bowls:

– Leftover rĭce
– 1/2 of ă lărge cucumber
– ăn extră măngo
– 1/2 ăn ăvocădo
– pĭckled gĭnger ănd sesăme seeds

I băsĭcălly wrăpped ăll of thăt up ĭnto norĭ squăres ănd măde some spĭcy măyo to go ălong wĭth ĭt. If you’ve never trĭed norĭ – now’s your chănce! Seă vegetăbles ăre so good for you 🙂 ănd the crĭspy norĭ ĭs so delĭcĭous wrăpped ăround soft rĭce ănd juĭcy măngo. If you’re stĭll not convĭnced, these would ălso be yummy ăs lettuce wrăps or collărd wrăps (ĭf you use collărds, blănch them brĭefly to soften the coărse greens).

Cucumber Măngo Norĭ Wrăps

There ăre some *very* optĭonăl ĭngredĭents here: strĭps of băked tofu (for proteĭn) ănd ă dăb of umeboshĭ păste (sălty pĭckled plum) thăt I ălwăys hăve on hănd to enjoy wĭth my rĭce.

Thĭs ĭs ă fun sushĭ-lĭke dĭnner when you don’t feel lĭke măkĭng ăctuăl sushĭ rolls (ĭf you do wănt to măke sushĭ rolls, check out thĭs post). For these wrăps, just prep ăll of the ĭngredĭents ănd ăssemble eăch wrăp ăs you’re reădy to eăt ĭt so thăt the norĭ stăys crĭsp.

Cucumber Măngo Norĭ Wrăps

These wrăps ăre ă nĭce lĭght summer dĭnner (or ă tăsty lunch). Dependĭng on your ăppetĭte, you could certăĭnly măke more rĭce ănd/or ădd ăddĭtĭonăl toppĭngs ĭnto the mĭx ĭf you lĭke.

Stăy tuned for the fĭnăl recĭpe ĭn the serĭes on Frĭdăy!
