This was a very nice wrap, I used a tomato basil wrap and followed the recipe per instructions. The only change I made was my mayo was past the expiration date, so I just made it without it and it came out just fine, loved the avocado and sprouts. -
Agreeable wrap that brings a cool freshness to those 90 days! I did make two very inconsequential changes in that I used roasted baby lettuce from DH's first garden as a replacement for iceberg lettuce and roasted red pepper for raw pepper as I had some roasted red peppers in the refrigerator. We thought the dill was a nice touch (may have used more than a tablespoon as I eyeballed it LOL) and would like to try again with some radish sprouts. Thanks for the post.

With the demise of the forums and with no more interaction on site with what was a great community and it was a pleasure to get to know so many of you over the years and to have had the privilege of meeting some of you in person. For me now this is just another recipe site like to many on the net, it has lost its specialness, such a pity especially when Scripps changed the name from Recipezaar to Food.com and made this statement sorry cannot replicate here as considered invalid but they basically said yes the community was valuable hence .com was short for community but it was a pack of lies as they were not willing to put the money into that community and got rid of the forums which was the community so for .com has become .crap.
