We love these rolls! We pile ours with beef and BBQ sauce, but why not try slow cooked peas, roasted tempeh, tofu, hummus, egg, or just fill it with mushrooms and veg?

Melt coconut oil in a large saute pan, cook mushrooms on medium for about 5 min, add chopped collards and cook until wilted. Turn heat down and add peas. Add 1/4 C of BBQ sauce. Add tabasco salt & pepper.
Assemble: grease a medium casserole dish and line with any extra collard leaves you have. Take one of your 9 leaves and add a heaping quarter cup of filling towards the base. Carefully roll up like a burrito.Place into prepared casserole dish. Repeat using rest of leaves and filling. Cover and bake at 350 for 25 min or until heated through. Warm extra BBQ sauce and drizzle on top of rolls!
