These nori wraps are packed with healthy veggies–avocado, squash, cabbage–and topped with a miso tahini sauce. A great easy snack recipe!
Like most of my favorite snacks, they are really just a vehicle for sauce. And this spicy tahini drizzle would make any veggie go down easily.
The secret ingredient is chickpea miso, which gives the ground sesame a nice hint of sweet and saltiness. I didn’t have it on hand, so I violated one prong of Amie’s detox by adding the soy version. My jar is organic and GMO-free, but I should probably replace it with a chickpea-based brand for future spicy tahini drizzles. Either way though, the sauce is delicious!

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute chickpea miso with regular soy miso in the spicy tahini drizzle?
Yes, you can use soy miso if chickpea miso is unavailable, but keep in mind that it will slightly alter the flavor profile.
What type of veggies can I use if I don’t have avocado, squash, or cabbage?
Feel free to substitute with other crunchy vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, or cucumbers, as they will also work well in the nori wraps.
