Squash Beggar’s Purse with Pomegranate and Sage

My friend, Farmer Gray, dropped off a huge bag of squash for me a while back. I have been slowly working through all of the little beauties, making tons of great raw food recipes. Today, I decided to make some squash wraps for a little beggar’s purse.. A cashew sage cream sauce is the perfect accompaniment.

 

 

These little “beggars purses” are filled with a mixture of pumpkin seeds, almonds, shredded squash, spinach, andĀ pomegranateĀ seeds! Make the wraps the day ahead and you will have a perfect little treat.

    You are the most remarkable chef I’ve ever known! You make such delightful creations from a bag of squash, or a few seeds and tomatoes, or mushrooms in season….. simply Amazing! An Incredibly Talented Chef you are! My hat’s off to you, Susan.

    These look delicious. I am making them right now! How big of a batch does this make, I am wondering how many sheets of wraps I should prepare? Thanks.

    Ohh! This looks like pasta! Living in Italy it’s sooo hard doing without the filled-pasta.
    Going towards a raw-diet I find it most hard to do without the bread and “wraps” . Saw the recipie of the green-wraps the other day ( wow! That’s for us ) and now this :)) BUT even I still have to find the “young coconut”. Do you mean the green ones ? I’ll have a look in a small indian food-store nearby. Compliments for your skills !

    Amazing! I know there is no substitute for young coconut but is there anything else that would work to make the purse? I really want to make these but I don’t have any young coconut.

      In this recipe, it helps make the wraps flexible. I don’t have a substitution. Do you have any asian markets around? They often have the coconuts, or frozen young coconut flesh.

    When I saw the word “purse” my eyes popped. I collect them. This is probably your best creation ever. We all love your creative surprises! Thank you so much! This recipe is precious.
