The grey and cold winter is finally officially over and the warmer weather brings with it new colors and flavors perfect for the season and temperature. Spring and summer make me miss my beautiful Ecuador, where it is absolutely perfect almost all year round.

This is when I incorporate Avocados From Mexico into my warm weather recipes, to remind me of home, and with avocados always in season, they provide a nutritional and colorful component to my active lifestyle during the warm weather. I will show you how to make a very simple and yet very delicious and nutritious snack perfect for your outdoor picnic, a day at the beach, or after that three mile hike at the park with your amigas! Below is “BELU’S CHICKEN AND AVOCADO WRAP” recipe!

Let’s face it, if there is one thing in Latin American cuisine that you can’t go wrong with, it has to be avocados. This recipe is very simple but with Avocados From Mexico it will always taste fresh and will always be delicious. Although simple, it is a very complete nutritional package: protein from the chicken, a great source of good fats from the avocados with a touch of vinegar adds a great taste, and the wrap provides a good source of fiber.
