Peach and Avocado Wrap with Basil and a Balsamic Dressing



Peach Basil Avocado Balsamic Wrap 

1 extra large tortilla shell
1 small peach, sliced
1/2 avocado, sliced
handful of fresh basil leaves, shredded or chopped
balsamic dressing (below)
additional greens/veggies/salad (I added some cucumber)

balsamic dressing:
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
pinch of salt and pepper
1 tsp Dijon mustard  (or some chopped herbs)

Directions:

1. Slice your peach and avocado - toss together (with an optional splash of lemon or orange juice). set aside.
2. Blend all your dressing ingredients in a food processor or blender. 
3. Warm wrap in a pan. (Just turn the tortilla shell for about 5-10 seconds on each side).  Alternatively you can use the microwave.
4. Toss your peaches, basil and avocado with a splash of dressing. Fill wrap. Add another drizzle of dressing if desired. But just a little goes a long way! Also add any additional veggies for a heartier salad-style wrap.
5. Roll wrap. Allow wrap to cool and "set" before slicing or it has a tendency to fall apart a bit due to the slick contents. ... A handful of fluffy greens stuffed into the wrap would probably remedy this problem I had.
