Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 large whole grain tortilla
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Wash the mixed berries thoroughly under cool running water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
- Cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and carefully scoop out the flesh into a small mixing bowl.
- Mash the avocado with a fork until it reaches a smooth, creamy consistency. Add lemon juice and mix well to prevent browning and enhance flavor.
- Gently slice or chop the mixed berries into smaller pieces, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Lay the whole grain tortilla flat on a clean cutting board or clean work surface.
- Spread the mashed avocado evenly across the center of the tortilla, leaving about an inch of space from the edges.
- Sprinkle the chopped mixed berries over the avocado spread.
- Drizzle honey or agave syrup evenly over the berries for added sweetness.
- Carefully fold the bottom of the tortilla up, then fold in the sides, and roll the wrap tightly to enclose the filling.
- Cut the wrap diagonally in half and serve immediately for the freshest taste and texture.
Tips
- Choose Ripe Ingredients: For the best flavor, make sure your avocado is perfectly ripe. It should yield slightly when pressed. Also, select fresh, vibrant berries for maximum sweetness and nutrition.
- Experiment with Berries: Feel free to mix and match different berries based on what you have on hand or your personal preferences. Blackberries and cranberries can add a unique twist to the wrap!
- Add Crunch: For an extra layer of texture, consider adding a handful of nuts or seeds, such as sliced almonds or chia seeds, to your wrap.
- Make it a Meal: To turn this wrap into a more substantial meal, consider adding some protein, like grilled chicken or chickpeas, to keep you fuller for longer.
- Serve with a Dip: Pair your wrap with a yogurt-based dip or a light vinaigrette for added flavor and a gourmet touch.
- Wrap It Right: When rolling your wrap, ensure it’s tightly secured to prevent the filling from spilling out. This will also help maintain the wrap’s shape.
- Enjoy Fresh: For the best taste and texture, serve your wrap immediately after preparation. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it wrapped in parchment paper in the fridge to keep it fresh.
