How to Make Avocado Caprese Wrap

Whether its a celebratory lunch for a crowd or just a quick bite for one, making Avocado Caprese Wraps are a filling and healthy way to take a bite out of summer.

I’m guessing I’m like a lot of you round about this time of summer. Fresh flavors are being craved by my taste buds sending shockwaves of recipe ideas to my hot little head. But with the daydreams of swimsuits and pool time on this hot, dry days, lighter fare is always on my mind.
I don’t know if I will ever tire of the classic caprese. Salads, sandwiches, pastas. You could turn this thing into a taco or french toast and I’d eat it. Weak in the knees. It’s what I’ve become. Prepare to see more.
And now, this wrap. It tingles my palate.
I could eat one of these every day. In fact, I have. At least for 3 of the past 5. That’s fair odds in my book. And shows my sincere caprese dedication.
When Avocados from Mexico asked me to come up with a recipe to share with their readers, it really wasn’t much of a stretch for me to pull out my tomatoes and mozz and doctor it up with sweet balsamic and creamy avocados. You should think about it. Oh but why just think about it? Just go ahead and make it.

While I was linking up my recipe for today’s post I discovered their newly redesigned recipe section. It’s pretty cool, more Pinterest-style in its display, so finding recipes—several from more food bloggers—is visual and easy to scroll through. More avocado recipes to love…
So.
While I usually do my round up of favorites each Friday, I’m taking a pass for this week because I have something even better to share with you for next week.
Until then, have a great weekend friends. Make it a safe one and cook something good.

Paleo & Keto Matcha Breakfast Bowl

Image
Think of this overnight paleo and keto matcha breakfast bowl as an ideal way to kickstart your day: a true  nutritional powerhouse , packed with  antioxidants and fiber . Paleo & Keto Matcha Breakfast Bowl  Overnight This matcha bowl with chia seeds has been  my go-to breakfast  as of late. It’s  quick , packed with  fiber , incredibly  nutrient dense , and  delicious . As in, it checks all the right boxes. I  whip up a large batch  and keep it handy in the fridge for the week. i.e. it’s meal prepping supreme. Then I either eat the chia pudding whole with a handful of berries, or when I’m feeling fancy I turn it into a ‘breakfast bowl’. I simply blend the matcha chia pudding with half an avocado (for added good fats, nutrients and extra creaminess), some mint leaves (or extract), a handful of ice, and make a smooth pudding-like bowl out of it. Sort of like our Shamrock shake, but thicker and packed with fiber. The r...

7-Layer Bean Dip

Image
The ultimate party food – 7 Layer Bean Dip! My family has long loved 7 layer bean dip. We all sit down and eat a very generous serving whenever it’s around, as in there’s rarely ever a speck left. I’ve shared a few versions of this classic dip but this is my favorite version. It is just SO good!! I took the classic version, the one you’ll find all over the interwebs and added my own spin to it. I started with the classic canned refried beans. I used RosaritaRefried Beans, they’re my go-to canned refried beans. You can find them at Walmart. I added my own seasoning blend to the beans (seasoning packets have their place just not here, typically you’ll find a whole packet of seasoning in these too – I think that’s just too much I want to be able to taste everything else), I also used homemade guacamole, nixed the salsa and rather added a can of  Ro*tel Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies (and I mixed them right into the beans it gives them a great flavor). And then I...
