Turkey, Greens, and Avocado Quick Snack Wraps
We’re not fans of overcomplicating nourishment. I mean, don’t get me wrong, we love an elaborate and fancy dish, but when life is life-ing, who’s got time for that?! Let me phrase that differently – it might not be the best thing to devote your limited time to when you have a million other balls in the air. We adjust, we reprioritize, and we consider our biggest goals when time is limited and we have to decide how to spend it. Sometimes scaling back is necessary for sanity and smooth sailing. You can always make your 20-step recipe next week! 😉
This week though, we’ve got a heart healthy, protein-filled snack that will keep you going and won’t require you to cook a darn thing.
- The protein in the turkey helps to stabilize your blood sugar, providing lasting energy, and it’s also important for helping build muscle.
- Avocado contains monounsaturated fats that can satiate your appetite and support healthy lipid balance.
- The microgreens in this recipe provide a good source of vitamins A and C, as well as phytonutrients with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that can help support a healthy body overall.
- The avocado and microgreens are both sources of dietary fiber, which is essential for maintaining a healthy digestive system.
- All told, this little snack packs a whopping 17 grams of protein and 7 grams of fiber!
5 Minutes 1 Serving 3 Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1/2 Avocado (sliced thin)
- 3.5 oz (about 3 slices) Sliced Turkey Breast
- Microgreens
Directions
- Layer the sliced avocado on top of the sliced turkey breast and top with microgreens. Roll into a wrap and serve!
Notes
- No turkey? Use chicken or another deli meat instead – True Story and Diestel are great brands.
- More flavor: Add a condiment such as mustard or Primal Kitchen or Chosen Foods sauces (I love Chosen Foods Everything Bagel Sauce). Add spices of your choice.
- Leftovers: Best enjoyed immediately but can be stored in the fridge for up to two days. Sprinkle the avocado with lemon juice to prevent browning.
