Vegan Sour Cream + Guacamole Wrap

Posted on 31 May 2010 by sie

This idea started as a hummus replacement. I needed some change. Also, QB has been asking for guacamole for over a week and we just keep forgetting avocados when we go out. This is so simple and only takes a few minutes to make.

Guacamole Wrap (Makes 3 servings)

1 Avocado (~180g of insides)
1 can Rotel (I use original)
3 Flatout wraps (or other wrap thing)
120g Baby Spinach
45g (3T) Vegan Sour Cream
Ground Cayenne (optional)

Make guacomole by mixing the avocado with a can of drained rotel.

Spread 1/3 of the guacamole of half of each wrap, then spread 15g of vegan sour cream on each of the other halves. I then sprinkle cayenne pepper everywhere, but just on mine. :-) Divide spinach, putting ~40g on each wrap. Fold in half. I like to then cut it in half, and eat it like a taco. Just like I think things taste better when I use a straw, if the food cannot be eating with a straw, I often find it taste better if you eat it with your hands.

Seriously. I think blueberries just taste better if you eat them with your hands, say as opposed to a spoon or something. The wrap is another example. I started out cutting them up with a fork and knife, but once I tried cutting it in half and eating it like a taco, I realized I thought it tasted better with my hands. I can’t explain it, but I am not going to fight it. :-)

Now for some pics, then some CRON-O-Meter.

Yummy guacamole!
