This colorful wrap is a refreshing and healthy lunch or snack option. The creamy avocado provides a rich base, while the citrus segments add a burst of sweetness and acidity. The cucumber, red onion, and carrots add a crunchy texture and a pop of color. The fresh cilantro adds a herbaceous note that brings all the flavors together.
The citrus and avocado rainbow wrap was born out of a desire to create a healthy and delicious lunch that was also visually appealing. I was inspired by the vibrant colors of the fruits and vegetables, and I wanted to create a wrap that would be both nutritious and eye-catching. After some experimentation, I came up with this recipe, which has become a favorite of mine and my friends and family.
