Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prep: Cut the bottom part of the stem from each leaf.
  2. Parboil: Bring a large pot of water to a simmer. Nearby, arrange a large bowl of ice water. Working in batches, drop a leaf in the hot water for 20 to 30 seconds, or until the leaf is soft and pliable. Immediately plunge it into the ice water to stop the cooking process, then place on a clean towel.
  3. Assemble: Place desired fillings in an oval mound near the center of the leaf. Fold the sides of the leaf on top of the mound, then tightly roll from the stem to the top of the leaf. Serve immediately or keep to enjoy later. The wraps themselves make great meal prep!

Notes

  • Storage: Once the wraps are made, they can be kept in the fridge for up to 4 days. Chard wraps are delicious cold!
