Instructions
1. Prepare the avocado spread
- In a small bowl, mash the avocado with lime juice, salt, and pepper until creamy but still a bit chunky.

3. Roll the wrap
- Fold the sides of the tortilla slightly, then roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose the filling.

Something Extra from Me
Try adding fresh herbs like cilantro or basil for an aromatic boost. A drizzle of chipotle mayo or garlic aioli can add a smoky, creamy kick that pairs beautifully with the avocado.
For a vegan twist, swap chicken with grilled tofu or chickpeas and use vegan mayo.
