Raw Collard "No Bean" Burritos

 

 I went to a Raw Food Bar in Salt Lake with my friend...Omar's Rawtopia. It was utterly fabulous and everything we tried was delicious and fresh. The first thing that caught my eye on his menu was his "Bean Burrito" which is a Mexican inspired dish. The "beans" were made with Tahini and sunflower seeds and the "sour cream" was made from Macadamia nuts, both wrapped in a burrito made of collard greens. The dish was just divine and of course I immediately came home and was inspired to create something similar.
