# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together faster than ordering takeout, yet tastes like you spent the whole afternoon in the kitchen.
  • Every single component can be prepped the night before, making chaotic mornings actually manageable.
  • The crunch-and-creaminess balance hits that sweet spot where eating feels like both nourishment and indulgence.
02 -
  • Don't slice your avocado until you're ready to assemble; even five minutes in open air will start browning the exposed flesh and create a bitter, unappealing taste.
  • The tortilla-to-filling ratio matters more than you think—too much filling and everything falls apart, too little and you're basically eating flavored bread.
  • If you're making these ahead, keep the dressing separate and only dress the wrap right before eating, or the tortilla will absorb the moisture and turn soft and sad.
03 -
  • If your tortillas are prone to tearing, warming them slightly makes them more forgiving and actually more flavorful than cold ones straight from the package.
  • The tighter you roll, the better the wrap holds together when you bite into it—practice makes you braver about applying real pressure without breaking the tortilla.
