YAM AND AVOCADO SPREADS



Yam and Avocado Spreads image

Wraps are the quintessential summer food for us. Using a wholegrain shell and loading in tonnes of veggies make for a healthy quick meal. Below we provide you with some very tasty and nutritious options to the standard mayo or ranch dressing that you normally find as a wrap spread.

Number Of Ingredients 11

Yam Spread:
1 ½ cups or 1 small yam (cubed, steamed until very soft)
1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
1/8 teaspoon (2 pinches) ground cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
Avocado spread:
1 avocado
1 ½ teaspoons lemon or lime juice (freshly squeezed)
1 tablespoon onion (minced)
1/8 teaspoon (2 pinches) chilli powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl add cooked yams. With a fork mash until smooth. Alternatively add yams to a food processor and puree until smooth.
  • Add lemon juice, salt and pepper and mix well.
  • In a mixing bowl add avocado. With a fork mash until smooth.
  • Add juice, onion, chilli powder, salt and pepper and mix well.
  • Either spread is a healthy substitute to mayonnaise in a wrap or sandwich. Just add your favourite protein and veggies, slap on some spread and you've got a gourmet wrap to sit down and enjoy or take with you on the go.
  • Avocado spread can be used in place of store bought guacamole.
  • Quick and affordable appetizer idea - serve as dip with veggies or a spread on crackers.
