PALEO AVOCADO SPICY CHICKEN BURRITO

Fantastic wrap full of fabulous goodness, the wrap itself is made with eggs and flaxseed so a great start there and then I love to stuff mine with lots of spinach and watercress along with avocado, peppers, raw chilli tomato salsa and in this case spicy chicken, a pleasure to eat.  I make a couple at a time and have my paleo fridge all loaded with lots of ready to go ingredients, so this is a really quick and speedy meal to make or take when you need to eat on the go.

Paleo Fridge
Two or three times a week I will fill some glass tubs of sliced peppers, onions, spring onions, chillies, avocado guacamole, cooked chicken, sliced beef, cooked asparagus or any left over cooked vegetables and I have growing in the garden kale, spinach, land cress, beetroots, carrots etc.  This I find allows me to make speedy suppers when needed and these wraps are great for stuffing.

Prep time 5 minutes if you have a Paleo Fridge


Ingredients
(makes 2)

Filling
1 avocado diced
1/2 lime juiced
1 red pepper 1/2 sliced 1/2 diced
1 red chilli diced
2 handfuls spinach
2 handfuls watercress
200g cooked chicken fajitas
1 lrg tomato diced
2 spring onions diced
2 tbsp coriander torn
1/2 tsp fresh grated turmeric

Flaxseed Wraps
2 eggs
2 egg whites
4 tbsp flaxseed
1/2 cup water

To make the wraps, pre heat a non stick frying pan to a medium hot, spray with coconut oil, place all the wrap ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.  Pour half the mix into you pan and gently swirl to cover the base equally, leave to cook, don't touch!, when you see air bubbles and the wrap is not runny liquid anymore pop under the grill to finish cooking for approx 30 - 60 seconds, leave to rest in the pan for a couple of minutes and then loosen off and place on a plate while you repeat this again with the remainder of the batter.

Tomato Salsa
In a bowl mix the diced tomato and half the diced peppers, one of the spring onions, the coriander and half the lime juice, season with salt and pepper.

Avocado
Mash the avocado and mix with the remaining half of the red pepper, the spring onion, the lime juice, chilli and turmeric, season with salt and pepper.

Now just load your wraps as you like with the chicken, watercress, spinach, peppers, tomato salsa and avocado guacamole, wrap up and enjoy.
