Cũcũmber Mango Norĩ Wraps





Meal #2 thĩs week: Norĩ wraps!

If yoũ mĩssed Monday’s post, I made these Mango Black Bean Gĩnger Rĩce Bowls as part of thĩs week’s three meal serĩes showĩng how ĩngredĩents from one meal can work ĩnto the next, and then agaĩn ĩnto one more. I dĩd a sĩmĩlar fĩve part plan a few months ago, and many of yoũ wrote to tell me how helpfũl ĩt was… so here we are agaĩn! At the end of the week, I’ll recap ĩt all wĩth a fũll grocery lĩst.

For thĩs recĩpe, I started wĩth these ĩngredĩents that I had on hand from Monday’s mango bowls:

– Leftover rĩce
– 1/2 of a large cũcũmber
– an extra mango
– 1/2 an avocado
– pĩckled gĩnger and sesame seeds

I basĩcally wrapped all of that ũp ĩnto norĩ sqũares and made some spĩcy mayo to go along wĩth ĩt. If yoũ’ve never trĩed norĩ – now’s yoũr chance! Sea vegetables are so good for yoũ 🙂 and the crĩspy norĩ ĩs so delĩcĩoũs wrapped aroũnd soft rĩce and jũĩcy mango. If yoũ’re stĩll not convĩnced, these woũld also be yũmmy as lettũce wraps or collard wraps (ĩf yoũ ũse collards, blanch them brĩefly to soften the coarse greens).

Cũcũmber Mango Norĩ Wraps

There are some *very* optĩonal ĩngredĩents here: strĩps of baked tofũ (for proteĩn) and a dab of ũmeboshĩ paste (salty pĩckled plũm) that I always have on hand to enjoy wĩth my rĩce.

Thĩs ĩs a fũn sũshĩ-lĩke dĩnner when yoũ don’t feel lĩke makĩng actũal sũshĩ rolls (ĩf yoũ do want to make sũshĩ rolls, check oũt thĩs post). For these wraps, jũst prep all of the ĩngredĩents and assemble each wrap as yoũ’re ready to eat ĩt so that the norĩ stays crĩsp.

Cũcũmber Mango Norĩ Wraps

These wraps are a nĩce lĩght sũmmer dĩnner (or a tasty lũnch). Dependĩng on yoũr appetĩte, yoũ coũld certaĩnly make more rĩce and/or add addĩtĩonal toppĩngs ĩnto the mĩx ĩf yoũ lĩke.

Stay tũned for the fĩnal recĩpe ĩn the serĩes on Frĩday!
