Avocado Turkey Wraps -- Feeding the Champions at Our Table

Late April. Sofia ran at regionals. She won the 800 in 2:09.0. She is the regional champion again. State is in three weeks.

I made fish tacos Saturday. The whole family ate. The road bends. Feed your people. The game is won at the table.

When Sofia crossed that finish line first, I already knew what Saturday needed to look like — everyone together, something fresh and good on the table, no fuss. I had planned fish tacos, and we had those too, but by Sunday I was still riding that wave and these Avocado Turkey Wraps came together almost on their own, the kind of simple food that just fits a moment like this one. The road bends, as I said, and sometimes the best thing you can do is keep feeding your people well.

Avocado Turkey Wraps

Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 0 minutes | Total Time: 10 minutes | Servings: 4

Ingredients

• 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
• 1 lb sliced deli turkey breast
• 2 ripe avocados, peeled, pitted, and sliced
• 1 cup shredded romaine lettuce
• 1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
• 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
• 4 slices provolone or Swiss cheese
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon lime juice
• Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Mix the spread. In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lime juice until smooth. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
2. Prep the tortillas. Lay each flour tortilla flat on a clean work surface. Spread a thin layer of the mayonnaise mixture across the center of each tortilla, leaving about an inch around the edges.
3. Layer the fillings. On each tortilla, layer a slice of cheese, then divide the turkey evenly among the four wraps. Top with avocado slices, shredded romaine, tomato slices, and red onion.
4. Wrap tightly. Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll from the bottom up, keeping the filling snug as you roll. Press gently to seal.
5. Slice and serve. Cut each wrap diagonally in half and serve immediately, or wrap tightly in parchment paper for easy packing.
