Nori Salad Wraps


About this recipe:
My dear friend Sandra came up with the brilliant idea to make these nori wraps when eating salad. Its a super handy way to transport the greens to your mouth. You can basically make it with any kind of salad (or filling) you want, just make sure you dry the ingredients,  you don't want the nori to become soggy.


Ingredients:
• 4 - 6 raw nori sheets
• handful of arugula
• 1 carrot, julienned
• 1/2 of a small cucumber, julienned
• 1 (watermelon) radish, julienned
• 1/2 red bell pepper, julienned
• 1/2 avocado, diced
• 1 heirloom tomato, diced
• some olive oil
• squeeze of lemon
• squeeze of miso mayo
• pepper & salt to taste

1. Prepare the salad by mixing all the ingredients.
2. Lay a nori sheet flat on a dry surface.
3. Scoop a royal portion of the salad on the nori sheet. Make sure to leave some room on the corners (see photo).
4. Fold each corner in, just like an envelope. You can use a toothpick to keep it together.
5. Enjoy right away.
