Directions
01
In medium bowl, whisk yogurt, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, chives, garlic, and 1/4 tsp (1 mL) black pepper; set aside.
02
Preheat oven to 425 F (220 C).
03
In large bowl, toss sweet potato with avocado oil, sea salt, and 1/4 tsp (1 mL) black pepper and spread evenly on large parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Place in preheated oven on middle rack and roast until squash is fork tender, about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through. Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature.
04
When sweet potato has cooled, add diced red bell pepper and dressing, and mix well. This can be stored in the fridge overnight to assemble wraps the next day.
05
To assemble wraps, lay out tortillas on counter. Divide spinach among wraps, placing it on the bottom third of each tortilla. Top spinach with evenly divided avocado and then sweet potato salad mix. Fold in tortilla’s two sides and then roll up from the bottom, folding and tucking in the two sides as you tightly wrap the tortilla to the end. Wrap each individually in parchment paper or place in resealable container small enough to keep wraps rolled up.
