Snackin’ with Sarah Sellers: Avocado Tortilla Roll-Ups

The top 4 are singing songs from the Golden State tonight on American Idol so I thought I  would do something easy and healthy(ish). After last week’s culinary brit invasion I needed something simple and quick. When I think California I think about the beach, beautiful people, and keeping your waste line  in check. So what better snack is there then some creamy avocado wrapped in a whole wheat flour tortilla. Of course I had to add some cheese and sour cream to make it that much better (I told you healthyish)!

There’s only a few weeks left until the finale but you can still check out my recipes on Yahoo Music’s own, Lyndsey Parker, and her Reality Rocks blog! Okay, sales pitch over, make this shiz…it’s super tasty!

Check out tonight’s recipe feature HERE!

Ingredients

  • 1 large avocado
  • 1/4 cup light sour cream
  • 1/2 lime, juiced
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp chile powder
  • 1 tsp jalapeno, finely chopped
  • 6 whole wheat tortillas, or 3 super sized tortillas
  • 1 cup colby cheddar cheese blend, shredded
  • 1/2 cup loosely packed cilantro, rough chop
  • Cholula chili garlic hot sauce

Make sure you get some perfectly ripe avocados.

In a large bowl mix together the avocado and next 5 ingredients, through the chile powder.

Add the jalapeno.

Mix until smooth.

Smear the avocado mixture onto the tortilla leaving a small border.

Sprinkle with the cheese.

Sprinkle with the cilantro.

Drizzle with the hot sauce.

Roll the tortilla up.

Repeat with the remaining 5 tortillas. Place in the fridge until ready to serve.

Cut the chilled tortilla rolls with a serrated knife into 1″ pin-rolls.

Bon Appétit!
