Our friends at the California Avocado Commission have come through for us once again, sending us another simple and tasty recipe. Their recipe for avocado wraps is a healthy dish for a family picnic, or warm weather dining and entertaining.

Here’s what they had to say about their recipe, “Roll 'em up and hit the road. You've got a moveable feast filled with delectable flavors and kid-pleasing crunch. Who knew eating on the run could be so fun?”

Avocados aren’t just delicious, they offer terrific health benefits as well.

Ingredients for 4 Servings

• 1 Cup ranch salad dressing
• 8 Ounces cream cheese, softened
• 4 (10-inch) flour tortillas, warmed
• 10 Ounces turkey breast slices
• 10 Ounces Monterey Jack cheese and/or Cheddar cheese slices
• 2 Ripe Fresh California Avocados, peeled, thinly sliced*
• 2 Medium tomatoes, thinly sliced
• Alfalfa sprouts (optional)

Preparation

1. Blend together dressing and cream cheese. Spread evenly on tortillas.
2. Evenly layer turkey, cheese, avocados, tomatoes and sprouts on tortillas, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
3. Fold the bottom edge toward the center and firmly roll away from you until completely wrapped.
4. Place seam side down on a platter and slice.
5. Serve.

*Large avocados are recommended for this recipe. A large avocado averages about 8 ounces. If using smaller or larger size avocados adjust the quantity accordingly.
