     Helpful Hints
     Shop for avocados that are firm, yet ripe when you're planning on chopping them. It's easiest to first halve the avocados,
     then remove the pit and peel them.

     Soft lettuce leaves, such as Bibb, Boston, or leaf lettuces, work best in wraps. Crisper salad greens are harder to roll.
