Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces large Romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato
- 12 pieces fresh basil leaves
- 1 large avocado
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Rinse and pat dry the Romaine lettuce leaves and set them aside on a clean work surface.
Slice the tomato into thin, even slices.
Half and peel the avocado, then slice it into thin strips.
Take two lettuce leaves and slightly overlap them, forming the base of the sandwich wrap.
Layer 3 fresh basil leaves on top of the lettuce.
Place a few slices of tomato over the basil leaves.
Fan out a few slices of avocado across the tomato slices.
Sprinkle a small amount of salt and pepper over the avocado and tomato.
Gently drizzle about half a tablespoon of balsamic vinegar over the fillings, followed by half a tablespoon of olive oil.
Carefully fold in the sides of the lettuce and then roll up from the bottom to form a wrap.
Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to make the second sandwich.
Secure the wraps with a toothpick if needed and serve immediately.
