Prepare the Ingredients.
Wash the lettuce thoroughly under cold water and pat dry with paper towels or use a salad spinner. Slice the tomato into thin, even slices. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out half of the avocado flesh into a bowl.
Tip: Choose a ripe avocado that yields slightly to gentle pressure for the best creamy texture. -
Mash the Avocado.
Using a fork, mash the avocado half in the bowl until it reaches a creamy consistency with some small chunks remaining for texture.
Tip: Add a pinch of salt or a squeeze of lemon juice to the avocado if desired to enhance flavor and prevent browning. -
Spread the Light Mayo and Avocado.
Lay the whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread the light mayo evenly over the tortilla, then spread the mashed avocado on top of the mayo layer.
Tip: Spreading the mayo first helps the avocado stick better and adds creaminess. -
Layer the Turkey and Vegetables.
Place the sliced turkey breast evenly over the avocado layer. Then add the lettuce leaves and tomato slices on top of the turkey.
Tip: Distribute ingredients evenly to ensure every bite has a balanced flavor. -
Wrap the Tortilla.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla about 1 inch, then tightly roll the tortilla from one end to the other to form a wrap. Use gentle pressure to keep the wrap tight but avoid tearing the tortilla.
Tip: If the tortilla cracks, warm it slightly in the microwave for 10 seconds to make it more pliable. -
Serve.
Cut the wrap in half diagonally for easier eating and serve immediately. Optionally, you can wrap it in parchment paper or foil for packing.
Tip: Serve with a side of fresh fruit or a light salad for a complete meal.
Pro tips
- Use ripe avocado for the creamiest texture and best flavor.
- Warming the tortilla slightly makes it easier to roll without cracking.
