This fancy looking finger-food is a plant-based twist on the typical veggie pinwheel roll-up. They’re great to serve at get-togethers or as a simple and filling lunch. Simply mix, roll and enjoy!
Instead of the typical high fat dairy products, the creaminess is achieved by blending tofu and cashews. These nutrient-rich foods – adding protein and healthy fats – make for a satisfying end product!
A recent research article offers a great reminder of the benefits of enjoying plant foods in place of animal products. Researchers reviewed 41 articles and concluded that consuming a plant-based diet can decrease the risk of heart disease. The risk is decreased even if small amounts of animal products are consumed.. so all-or-nothing isn’t necessary!
Be sure to go for a sprouted grain or 100% whole grain tortilla. Whole grains don’t have the outer shell stripped away, meaning you don’t miss out on lots of nutrients, including filling fiber! Some of our favorite tortilla brands include..
- Food for Life Ezekiel 4:9 sprouted grain tortilla
- Alvarado Street Bakery sprouted wheat tortillas
- Cedarlane Foods whole wheat tortillas
- Mountain Bread wraps
- Whole Foods tortillas
Any 100% whole grain tortilla is a pretty good choice. Most stores have a generic brand that’s very affordable!
