Being equally nutritious and delicious, avocados are a great addition to any braces-friendly menu. With that in mind, we are sharing not one, but three of our favorite avocado-centric (and braces-friendly) recipes with you here today:
Cook pasta in a large saucepan of boiling salted water until tender. Drain. Rinse under cold water. Drain.
Meanwhile, cook salmon in a heated, lightly oiled frying pan for about 3 minutes on each side, or until cooked and flakes easily. Cool. Flake flesh into large pieces.
Boil, steam or microwave peas until tender. Drain. Rinse under cold water. Drain.
Place pasta, salmon, peas, avocado, chopped herbs, olive oil, lemon rind and juice and garlic in a large bowl. Toss to combine.
Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes, or until crisp. Drain, crumble, and set aside.
Warm tortillas in microwave oven for 30 to 45 seconds, or until soft. Spread 1 tablespoon Ranch dressing down the center of each tortilla. Layer crumbled bacon, avocado, tomato and lettuce over the dressing. Roll the tortilla around the other ingredients.
