This is a great meal for a big power lunch during a busy week to give you the nutrients and flavor needed to stay going. It is very easy to make and uses fresh, healthy ingredients. Follow along.






Ingredients: (makes 2 wraps)

2 whole wheat wraps
4-6 slices of turkey breast
2 avocados
1 bunch of cilantro
1 red onion
1 tomato
4 slices of bacon
2 slices of cheese (swiss, muenster, gouda)
1 handful of spinach leaves
salt and pepper

Begin by browning the bacon and rendering out all the fat in a saute pan or in the oven or microwave. Set aside once cooked and most fat has been rendered off.

Next, begin making the guacamole. In a food processor or mixing bowl (try to avoid a slim blender because it will be too thick to puree) add the avocados, rough chopped cilantro, rough chopped red onion, 1 tbsp of water, and salt and pepper. Tip: When preparing avocados, run your knife around the seed to make two halves. Once you have two halves, one will have the seed. To remove the seed, you need a medium-large sized chef knife and you strike the seed with the middle of the knife like shown above. Once your knife is lodged into the seed, just twist your knife and you will remove the seed. To remove the seed from your knife be very careful and use the back of your thumb or hit it on your cutting board.
After blending together your ingredients for the guacamole, set aside. Now you are ready to make the wrap. Microwave the whole wheat wrap to warm and soften for wrapping. First apply the guacamole as the base, then the bacon, tomato, turkey, spinach, cheese. Roll it up, slice on a bias and serve!
