Florida Avocado Summer Wrap
Cook's notes: Did you know there are two kinds of avocados? One kind is from California and the other Florida. The Florida avocado has the same buttery avocado taste and texture but has less fat than traditional California avocado. Hummus comes in many different flavors. I liked the roasted red pepper hummus for this wrap.
This link provides more detail between the Florida and California avocado.
This wrap was the perfect choice for my daughter's visit. She is a vegetarian. Healthy ingredients with lots of flavor make this a great light summer meal.
