Crunchy Pan-Seared Vegetable Wrap

fast, crunchy, fresh, and spicy

10 minutes start to finish, serves 1

This is one of my favorite "quick, I need to eat and can't be bothered to do anything" recipes. It's easy to keep the ingredients on hand, and so I'm never more than ten minutes away from a satisfying and healthy meal.

Ingredients

1 large flour tortilla (about 10 inch diameter)
1 cup chopped romaine lettuce
1 large tomato
1/2 avocado
1 tablespoon mustard

optional: spicy pepper sauce (to taste)

Directions

Lay the tortilla out on a plate or other flat surface.

Spread the mustard over the center of the tortilla, pressing into it slightly with a spoon so it is slightly absorbed by the bread. If you're using the pepper sauce, spread it on as well.

Chop the tomato and avocado into cubes about 1 cm on a side, and spread them across the tortilla.

Spread the lettuce evenly over the chopped tomatoes.

Heat an empty pan on medium for 2-3 minutes, then place the tortilla flat inside it (bread side down). Heat for 5 minutes on high (or until surface is browned to your liking).

Fold the tortilla in half. You're ready to eat!
