Carrot lettuce wraps are bursting with texture, color, and crunch
The recipe makes the most of what's available in mid-spring, when the produce choices are not as plentiful.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (2 1/2 ounces) unsalted pumpkin seeds (pepitas) or sunflower seeds
- 2 pounds small or medium carrots, with greens still attached, scrubbed or peeled
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon fine salt, plus more as needed
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- pinch cayenne pepper
- Leaves from 1 large head Bibb lettuce (about 16 leaves)

- 2 large ripe avocados, pitted, peeled, and sliced
- lemon wedges, for serving
