Avocado, Spinach, and Feta Wraps (pg. 45)

My sisters are visiting, which means that I have concentrated cooking time... and a captive audience.  For lunch today, we opted for the avocado wrap.  Not something that I would typically try - not very experienced with avocado or feta cheese - but it is a recipe, so I must try it.

The recipe calls for spinach tortillas, avocado, salt & pepper, baby spinach, small shredded zucchini, fat-free feta cheese, balsamic vinegar and olive oil.  The avocado, salt and pepper get mashed together and spread on the tortillas.  The rest of the ingredients get piled on, and the whole kit and kaboodle get wrapped up.  A serving is 1/2 of a tortilla.

I was a little worried that this green concoction would not be satisfying with only 1/2 of a wrap.  Also, I thought that I would not like the taste of green.  Surprisingly, it was satisfying.  It tasted like green velvet, if velvet was edible.  The balsamic vinegar gave it a bite, and I enjoyed the feta cheese flavor. 

My sister, Aileen, took a bite and said, "I don't think that this is for me."  On clarifying, she said that if her tastebuds were more attuned to healthy food, it wouldn't have been an issue.  Green is not for everyone.  My sister, Erin, liked it - it was very green.  She thinks that the balsamic vinegar could become overwhelming if applied too liberally, but today's amount was good.

I did not even try to get Anna's opinion on this.  She had meatballs and a roll.

1 serving = 1/2 wrap = 5 points.
