Effortless & Delicious Avocado Salsa Pinwheels

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe Hass avocados
  • ½ cup (120 g / 4.2 oz) tomato salsa, your favorite kind
  • Juice of 1 lime, about 2 tablespoons (30 ml / 1 fl oz)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas, 10-inch size, warmed
  • 1 cup (60 g / 2.12 oz) finely shredded romaine lettuce
  • For the cleanest cuts, chill the rolled tortillas in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before slicing. This helps them firm up and hold their shape.
  • Boost the flavor by mixing in ¼ cup of finely chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons (30 ml / 1 fl oz) of minced red onion, or a finely diced jalapeño to the avocado mixture.
  • For a heartier, meal-worthy version, add ½ cup of rinsed and drained black beans or corn kernels to the filling before rolling.
  • To prevent the avocado from browning if making slightly ahead, press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the guacamole before spreading it.

Method
 

  1. Halve and pit the avocados. Scoop the flesh into a medium bowl.
  2. Add the salsa and lime juice, then mash with a fork until it reaches your desired consistency—chunky or smooth. 2.
  3. Season the guacamole mixture generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. 3.
  4. Place one warmed tortilla on a flat work surface.
  5. Spread about ¼ of the guacamole mixture evenly across it, leaving a small border around the edge. 4.
  6. Sprinkle ¼ of the shredded romaine lettuce over the guacamole. Tightly roll up the tortilla into a log. 5.
  7. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  8. Using a sharp or serrated knife, slice each roll into 1-inch thick pinwheels.
  9. Arrange them cut-side up on a platter and serve immediately for the best texture.
