Collard greens’ large, sturdy leaves make ideal low-carb wraps to stuff with your favorite fillings. They can be used raw or quickly blanched to tenderize the leaves, leaving them extra pliable and easy to chew. Here, we fill collard leaves with tuna salad and plenty of veggies, making a perfectly healthy and delicious low-carb lunch. For a plant-based version simply substitute the tuna salad for Natural Grocers Smashed Chickpea Salad or hummus.

When most of us think of a salad, we think greens and raw vegetables, but for this salad we took a cue from Morocco, where nearly all salads contain cooked veggies.

Millet, a tiny high-fiber, whole grain that is naturally gluten free, is a delicious and nutritious alternative grain—it’s also a climate-resilient crop that’s able to grow in high temperatures with less rainfall. This hearty, yet fresh salad showcases this versatile grain and is bursting with flavor from fresh parsley, mint, tomatoes, and cucumbers. A simple dressing of olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic brightens it up.
