Quick, delicious, Avocado, Beet, and Carrot Salad Wraps. These Boats, Tacos, Wraps, what have you, come together in less than 10 minutes, and they’re so delicious! Perfect for hot summer days. Thank you to the California Avocado Commission for sponsoring this post.
Nathan and I recently did The Plan, and one of the things that came out of that, other than us both losing weight, and feeling better; is I discovered that I like beets. Believe me when I tell y’all that nobody was more surprised than me. I don’t know if my palate just wasn’t up to beet level when I’ve had them previously, or if I just didn’t have them the right way. Who knows!
Fresh, bright, delicious flavors; these wraps come together in under 1o minutes, and that’s what this summer is all about – quick, delicious, light recipes that come together easily and satisfy. Perfect for lazing by the pool, or chilling in the hammock with a good book.
6 ingredients, y’all. 6 delicious, fresh, easy to keep on hand ingredients, and less than 10 minutes and you can have these Avocado, Beet, Carrot Salad wraps ready to eat.
Nathan is my meat and potatoes man, a Southern Boy at heart, and winning him over to the veggie side – the RAW veggie side with recipes like this one is HUGE deal.
Nathan eats these when I make them as long as I have a bottle of sriracha on hand for him 😉 This is the man who grows ghost peppers and jalapenos, y’all. If you’re a spicy food lover, top your wrap with some sriracha and enjoy the brilliant pairing of the cool creaminess from the avocado, the sweetness of the beets and carrots, and the crunch from the sunflower seeds topped with the tongue tickling heat from the sriracha.
I’m taking the ingredients for these, and my new favorite avocado, blueberry, pear smoothies to the Frio with us for our 15th anniversary. <<< that recipe coming soon!

I have eaten way too much BBQ this weekend, so this is definitely on the menu this week!
Ha, Matt! I feel ya! That’s another reason they’re coming on our trip with us… lots of bbq will be happening, definitely need something like this. Have a delicious week!
This is my kind of food! Love beets & avocado…these wraps look perfect.
They’re SO good, Aggie! Thank you <3 Miss you, lady! Hope all is well!
I was going to type “this is my kind of food!” and then I saw that Aggie wrote that. But…this is my kind of food! YUM.

These are so pretty! I love the pop of red the beets give…yum!
Thank you! I am finding myself now trying to find an excuse to use beets in lots of things just because they’re so pretty, and surprisingly sweet 🙂
These look amazing! (and healthy and delicious too) I’m not a great fan of beet roots but I’ve been looking for recipes to try and this just might be it.
I was adamantly anti-beets, until this was suggested to me.. the combination of the shredded beets, carrots, avocado.. yum. I think the beet recipes I’ve had prior to this were so heavily beet, without a tempered, complementary flavor, that I couldn’t get past it. I’m so glad that I’ve discovered this combo, and I can’t wait for more! Have a delicious week, thank you for taking time to comment!
Another great recipe! Thanks again Rachel !
