AVOCADO, BACON AND SHRIMP WRAPS
I found this recipe last year in the Chicago Tribune and have made it several times since then. It's best to use a good, smoky bacon and I prefer the lavash bread to the flour tortillas, but that's just a personal taste. Also, I usually buy the cooked shrimp when it's on sale at my store, which makes this even easier. I make one of these up in the evening, wrap in plastic wrap and throw it in my lunch bag in the morning to take to work.

Steps:
- Spread the flatbreads or tortillas with mayonnaise. Lay a lettuce leaf on each; top each with avocado and tomato slices. Divide the shrimp and bacon evenly among the sandwiches; top each with the remaining lettuce. Roll the flatbread to make a tight cylinder.
- If made ahead, wrap well in plastic wrap and refrigerate. I've only kept them as long as the next day, for lunch so don't know how well they'd keep any longer than that.

Tips:
- Prep your ingredients: Before you start cooking, wash and chop your vegetables, and cook your bacon and shrimp ahead of time. This will make the assembly process much faster.
- Use ripe avocados: Ripe avocados are creamier and have a better flavor. To check if an avocado is ripe, gently press on the skin. It should give slightly but not feel mushy.
- Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and rubbery.
- Use a large tortilla: A large tortilla will make it easier to wrap up all of the fillings. You can also use smaller tortillas, but you may need to fold them in half.
- Serve immediately: Avocado wraps are best served immediately after they are made. This will prevent the tortilla from getting soggy.
Conclusion:
Avocado, bacon, and shrimp wraps are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or lunch. They are perfect for parties or potlucks because they can be made ahead of time and served at room temperature. These wraps are also a great way to use up leftover bacon and shrimp. So next time you have some leftover protein, try making these wraps. You won't be disappointed!
