California Rollwich for Kids
Description
"I've developed this 'rollwich' for my two-year-old grandson Chase. He loves avocados so it'll make it easier to sneak in veggies. For adult tastebuds, I'd add onions and jalapeno peppers to the avocados."
Ingredients
- 1 flour tortillas (10 inch) or 1 pita bread
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 ounces sliced turkey or 2 ounces ham, thin deli slices
- 1 slice cheese, cut into strips (cheddar, provolone, swiss, etc.)
- 2 tablespoons romaine lettuce, shredded
- 1 small avocado
- 1⁄4 cup fresh tomato, diced
- 1 dash lemon juice or 1 dash lime juice
- 2 tablespoons carrots (diced or shredded) (optional)
- 1 tablespoon green pepper, diced (optional)
Directions
- Scoop the flesh from the avocado and mash, mixing with a dash of lemon or lime juice.
- Mix in diced tomatoes and optional vegetables.
- Set aside.
- Spread the tortilla or pita with mayonnaise, leaving at least 1/2 inch around the outside.
- Spread avocado spread over mayonnaise.
- Top spread with shredded lettuce.
- Carefully place turkey or ham slices on top of topping (leaving room on the edge for rolling).
- Add cheese strips down the middle.
- Carefully roll the tortilla into a wrap.
- Cut into two pieces.
