Zucchini Wraps

Zucchini Wraps






These wraps are fussy to make, but make a great presentation.  They also taste fantastic and will go fast. Any of your favourite sushi vegetables can be used too. The actual length of the matchstick will depend on how much you want them to stick out of the top of the wrap itself. I made mine about 1-1 1/2 inches taller the the slice of zucchini. I would recommend preparing the veggies ahead of time, so the actual assembly of the wraps goes quickly.

Ingredients

1 large zucchini
1/2 carrot, cut into fine matchsticks
1/2 cucumber. cut into fine matchsticks
1/2 red pepper, cut into fine matchsticks
1-2 radishes, cut into fine matchsticks
1/4 container pea shoots
1 green onion cut into lengths the same size as the matchstick vegetables

1 small container of your favourite hummus
Toothpicks

Directions

Using a vegetable peeler, thinly slice strips of zucchini along the long edge of the zucchini. The first one of two slices may be too narrow to use.

Lay the slice of zucchini out on a cutting board and using 1-2 Tblsp of hummus cover about 1/3 of the zucchini slice at one end only. The amount used will depend on the the of the slice.


Lay out the vegetables on top of the hummus, as shown.







Now starting at the end where the vegetables are, roll up the slice. Secure with a toothpick.




Serve and Enjoy.
