Apple, Avocado and Cheese Wraps with Corn on the Cob

Apple, Avocado and Cheese Wraps
Serves 3
Ingredients
  • 2 Fiji or Gala apples
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • handful of feta cheese (goat cheese optional)
  • handful of walnuts
  • 6 flour tortillas
  • 3 cobs of corn, husked
  • butter, for the corn
  1. Boil enough water to cover the corn. Cook the cob for about 8 minutes or until tender. [Or use your normal corn on the cob recipe]
  2. Dice both the apples and the avocados.
  3. Spoon out the fruit mixture on the tortillas
  4. Top with cheese and walnuts and serve, two tortillas per person.






I found a version of this recipe last year but I forgot to write down where I got it from. The wrap has a strange texture - the fruits are soft and juicy, the cheese is dry and powdery. I had a hard time finding walnuts out here so this version lacked protein.

This is another good summer meal - with the exception of the corn, there is no cooking. It just requires a knife and a cutting board.

Without walnuts:
2 Gala Apples: $1.09 at Walmart
2 Avocados: $1.36 at Walmar
Tortillas, 6 of 8 at $1.88/8 = $1.41 at Walmart
Feta Cheese, 1/3 of a container at $1.67/container = $0.56 at Walmart
3 Cobs of Corn: $1.14 at Safeway
Total Cost: $5.56 for 3 servings or $1.86 per serving
