Anti Inflammatory Beet & Avocado Wrap

Prep Time:30 minutes Cook Time: 45 minutes Servings: 4 minutes

Packed with fiber and monounsaturated fats, avocados are one of the best foods to eat to fight inflammation. Combined with raw beets, which contain their own inflammation-fighting phytochemicals, you'll get a lunch that packs a healthy punch. The tahini-lemon mixture adds brightness and a nutty flavor to the wrap. To julienne beets, cut them into thin rounds, then slice the rounds into matchsticks. Or to save time, simply grate the beets on the largest holes of a box grater.

Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon tahini
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground pepper
  • ½ cup julienned red beets
  • 1 ½ tablespoons hummus
  • 1 (8 inch) whole-wheat tortilla
  • 2 leaves butter lettuce
  • ½ medium avocado, sliced
Directions:
  1. Whisk lemon juice, tahini, oil, salt and pepper together in a medium bowl. Add beets; toss to coat.
  2. Spread hummus evenly over 1 side of tortilla. Place lettuce over hummus; top with beet mixture and avocado slices. Roll up burrito-style; slice in half.
