Grill the Wraps:

Notes
Grilled Wraps: Grilling adds a crispy texture that enhances the flavor.
Storage: Store in the fridge for a few hours if needed, but avoid overnight storage as the lettuce may wilt and avocado may brown.
Customizations: Add ingredients like peppers, onions, or bacon, or substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a healthier twist.
Tortilla Alternatives: For smaller tortillas, serve taco-style instead of wrapping.
