Quinoa adds a wonderful boost of protein to these gluten-free, vegan Grilled Artichoke and Quinoa Lettuce Wraps and the lemon brings some flavor and acidity to them. These wraps are also perfect for packing as lunch the next day, since they are best served at room temperature. If cleaning fresh artichokes is not something you are into, use jarred artichoke hearts. Rinse them and drain them well before grilling.
