- 2-4 tablespoons water
- 4 large medjool dates pitted
- 1-2 large knobs of fresh ginger to taste
- 1-2 medium garlic cloves
- Puree ingredients for sauce in a high speed blender until completely smooth.
- Heat cast iron skillet over medium heat on the stove. Cook cubed sweet potatoes on medium heat in a little water or oil until soft- I cook mine about 15 minutes until golden on the outsides. Add half the sauce and cook for another 3-5 minutes until crispy. Then set aside.
- In a bowl add julienned peppers, cilantro, chives, diced mango, the rest of sauce and toss.
- Wash and prepare lettuce leaves. I layer two leaves per wrap. Then layer on a scoop of the mango pepper slaw, sweet potatoes, and top off with sesame seeds, more chives, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice. Makes about 10-12 wraps

- 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves chopped
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast cubes
- 1/2 cup roasted cashews

- 1 tablespoon lime juice fresh squeezed is best!
- 1 medium garlic cloves
- 1/2 tablespoon ginger paste
- 1/2 tablespoon lemongrass paste
- In a blender (or food processor) puree all ingredients for the sauce until creamy and smooth.
- Place the zucchini noodles on a baking tray and cook in a convection toaster (or oven) on 450F for about 10-15 minutes until soft. Then set aside. *You can also cook them in a skillet on the stovetop or steam them, but I have found that convection baking the noodles turns out perfect results every time and eliminates excess water! Be sure to drain excess water from the noodles after cooking!
- In a large bowl add the chopped ingredients, chicken, noodles, and sauce. Toss together and top with cashews, sesame seeds, more cilantro, etc...
