Ingredients
Creamy Avocado Spread
  • 1 bunch fresh parsley
  • thyme, basil, rosemary, optional
  • ½-1 Tablespoon pesto, optional
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 avocado
  • 2-4 Tablespoons olive oil
  • juice of half a lemon or lime
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt or mayonnaise
  • salt and ground black pepper, to taste
  • Yields: Approximately 1 cup spread
Chicken Cucumber Wraps
  • 6 tortillas, any kind that you like
  • 1 cup Creamy Avocado Spread
  • 10 oz chicken or turkey deli, thinly sliced
  • 6 slices cheese, any kind that you like (I used Russian cheese, which is similar to Havarti)
  • ¼ - ½ of a head of iceberg lettuce (you can also use any other lettuce, such as romaine, arugula or even spinach)
  • ½ of an English cucumber, sliced
  • salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. In a food processor, pulse the herbs and garlic until finely chopped.
  2. Scoop out the avocado and add it to the food processor with the olive oil and lemon/lime juice, pulsing until the mixture is creamy.
  3. Add the Greek yogurt or use mayonnaise instead.
  4. You can also add some pesto to the spread and it really gave a lot of awesome flavor to the spread.
  5. Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
  6. You can easily make this spread by hand, without a food processor. Finely chop the herbs and garlic, mash the avocado with a fork and mix in the rest of the ingredients by hand as well.
  7. Top each of the tortillas with some of the avocado spread and then place the deli meat, cheese, lettuce and cucumber in the center of the tortilla. I like to season it with more salt and pepper.
  8. Roll the tortilla around the filling ingredients.
  9. Serve the tortilla wraps whole or cut them into pinwheels.
