2 tbsp

sour cream

30 mL

1/2 cup

prepared salsa

Directions

Grill sausages according to the package instructions.

In a large dry skillet, over medium heat, warm the tortillas one by one, turning once, until pale golden on both sides, about 30 seconds per side.

Arrange each warmed tortilla over 4 plates. Top each with a grilled sausage. Sprinkle with lettuce, plum tomatoes, avocado, cilantro and sour cream. Fold in sides and roll up to enclose filling. Serve with salsa.

Makes 4 servings

Innovative: Substitute prepared guacamole for the avocado if yours isn’t ripe and omit the sour cream.

Tip: Warming the tortillas in a pan before rolling will bring back a “fresh baked” flavour and texture.
