Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces whole grain tortillas
- 1 large ripe avocado
- 1 cup baby spinach leaves
- 0.5 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium carrot
- 0.5 small cucumber
- 6 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 medium lime
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the vegetables. Wash and dry the baby spinach leaves, cilantro, and cherry tomatoes. Set aside.
Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips. Peel and grate the carrot. Thinly slice the cucumber. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Mash it with a fork until smooth.
Add the juice of the lime, salt, and ground black pepper to the mashed avocado. Mix well to combine into a creamy spread.
Lay one tortilla on a flat surface. Spread half of the avocado mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
Place half of the baby spinach leaves, red bell pepper strips, grated carrot, cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, and cilantro evenly over the avocado spread.
Carefully roll the tortilla from one edge to the other, tucking in the filling as you go, to form a wrap. Ensure it is tight but not too tight to prevent tearing.
Repeat the process with the second tortilla and remaining ingredients.
Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy your heart-healthy avocado veggie wraps!
