In celebration of Earth Day, here is a deliciously healthy, plant-based recipe for you and your family to enjoy.
The perfect spring and summer dish that will surely wow 'em at a pot luck...it's a man-pleaser, too!
(and a teen-pleaser, my super-picky teenage daughter can't get enough of 'em!)
FAKE CHICKEN SALAD ROLL-UPS
2 cups chopped fake chicken ( Gardein Chikn Scallopinis are my favorite )
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup creamy poppy seed dressing
1/2 cup reduced-fat cream cheese
2 flour tortillas
6 leaves Bibb lettuce (or butter lettuce)
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh strawberries
In food processor, or hand-dice, to mix chicken, onions and walnuts. Add 1/3 cup of poppy seed dressing, process only until mixed.
In small bowl, mix remaining dressing and the cream cheese, spread with spoon until smooth.
Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over entire surface of tortillas. Remove white rib from the lettuce leaves. Press lettuce into the cream cheese, tearing to fit, and leaving top two inches of tortillas uncovered. Spread chicken mixture over lettuce. Sprinkle strawberries over chicken.
Firmly roll up tortillas, beginning at bottom. Wrap each roll in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least one hour. Trim ends of each roll. Cut rolls into 1/2-3/4 inch slices. Arrange on plate and serve! YUM!
