Hello! It’s me, the one who wrote about one pot creamy garlic pasta nearly one month ago now. *Gulp*. There seems to be something about spring that puts my blog posting schedule on slowdown. But I’m back. Today I’m sharing a super simple, easily customizable recipe for roasted vegetable and avocado garden wraps and I have a few more recipes in the works to share soon, too.

The truth is, I actually did post a recipe earlier in March, but it is so uncharacteristically unhealthy and uberprocessed that I didn’t even publish it to my RSS feed or email subscriber list. You may now take a look at my recipe for vegan cake batter blondies if desired. But I need to disclose in advance that it involves boxed cake mix (which is the reason the blondies are so crazy easy to make). Anyway, now you know. 🙂

If my avocados survive the stage of “Shannon eating mashed avocado out of a bowl with a spoon”, I love them on toast, bagels, or in wraps. Which reminds me that I should share my favorite avocado toast recipe at some point too. But these avocado garden wraps are perfect for that transition period right now between winter and spring. The lemon pepper avocado mash is bright and tangy, and the fresh sprouts are light and crisp; but the roasted vegetables, especially when eaten warm, are hearty and satisfying. Wrapped up in a nice big whole wheat tortilla, this makes for a great cold or room temperature lunch to bring to work, or a nice light dinner to eat when it’s first made.

These avocado garden wraps are super simple and I encourage you to season to your taste and preference, but I do have one tip. Be conservative with the lemon juice in the avocado mash – the lemon becomes more noticeable when the mash is eaten alongside the other ingredients in the wrap. First add salt and pepper to taste, and then add just enough lemon juice to make it pop.

Finally, here’s a helpful video about how to fold a wrap – note that the video has sound and the wrap in the video has non-vegan ingredients. I used Nature’s Promise whole wheat tortillas from my local supermarket for the pictured wraps. I also love the Ezekiel sprouted grain tortillas (but not at that price, yikes!)

Enjoy!
