Here's a recipe for a delicious and healthy dish that even picky eaters will love: Turkey and Avocado Wrap.
**Ingredients:**
* 1 whole wheat tortilla (6-8 inches in diameter)
* 2 oz. sliced turkey breast
* 1/2 avocado, mashed
* 1/4 cup shredded romaine lettuce
* 1/4 cup sliced red bell pepper
* 2 tablespoons hummus
* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
* Salt and pepper to taste
* Optional: salsa, shredded carrot, diced tomato, or sliced cucumber
**Cooking Steps:**
1. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
2. Place the tortilla in the skillet and warm it for about 30 seconds on each side. This will make it easier to roll up.
3. Add the sliced turkey breast to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
4. Spread the mashed avocado on the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
5. Add the cooked turkey breast on top of the avocado.
6. Sprinkle the shredded romaine lettuce and sliced red bell pepper over the turkey.
7. Drizzle the hummus over the top.
8. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and salt and pepper to taste.
9. Roll up the wrap tightly.
**Tips on Correct Cooking Techniques:**
1. Make sure to cook the turkey to the recommended internal temperature to avoid foodborne illness.
2. Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the tortilla from sticking and to make it easier to roll up.
3. Don't overfill the wrap, as this can make it difficult to roll up and may result in filling falling out.
4. Use ripe avocados for the best flavor and texture.
5. You can toast the tortilla in the oven or in a toaster for a crispy texture before wrapping.
**Variations:**
* Chicken and avocado wrap: Replace the turkey with 2 oz. sliced chicken breast and add 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
* Veggie wrap: Replace the turkey and avocado with 1/4 cup sliced bell peppers, 1/4 cup sliced cucumber, and 1/4 cup hummus.
* Turkey and cheese wrap: Add 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese to the wrap for an extra burst of flavor.
* Spicy wrap: Add 1-2 tablespoons of salsa to the wrap for an extra kick of heat.
**Ingredients for Other Versions:**
* Grilled chicken breast can be used instead of sliced turkey breast.
* Prosciutto or ham can be added as an alternative to turkey.
* Sliced black beans or chickpeas can be added for extra protein and fiber.
* Fresh herbs like parsley or basil can be used as a substitute for cilantro.
* Greek yogurt or tzatziki sauce can be used as a substitute for hummus.
* Additional vegetables like carrots, sprouts, or bell peppers can be added for extra flavor and nutrition.
