Ingredients

• 8 leaves Large lettuce leaves (e.g., romaine or butter lettuce)
• 1 medium Cucumber, thinly sliced
• 1 medium Tomato, thinly sliced
• 0.25 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
• 10 olives Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
• 1 medium Avocado, mashed
• 0.5 cup Artichoke hearts, chopped
• 0.25 cup Sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Tahini
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 clove Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash and pat the lettuce leaves dry. Set aside to use as the wrap for the sandwich.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mash the avocado and mix in the lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined; this will act as the sandwich spread.

Step 3

Prepare the filling ingredients: thinly slice the cucumber, tomato, and red onion, chop the artichoke hearts and sun-dried tomatoes, and slice the Kalamata olives if not already done.

Step 4

Lay out two large lettuce leaves, overlapping slightly, to form the base layer for each sandwich wrap.

Step 5

Spread a layer of the mashed avocado mixture onto the lettuce leaves.

Step 6

Evenly distribute the cucumber slices, tomato slices, red onion, olives, artichoke hearts, and sun-dried tomatoes on top of the avocado spread.

Step 7

Drizzle a small amount of tahini over the fillings and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of Mediterranean flavor.

Step 8

Top the fillings with another layer of lettuce leaves before folding or rolling the lettuce wraps tightly to create the sandwich. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.

Step 9

Repeat the process for the second sandwich.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy a fresh, veggie-packed Paleo and Vegan Mediterranean sandwich!
