Contributed By: laura17

This delicious blend of flavors - fresh fruit, peanut butter, and vanilla yogurt, all wrapped up in a flour tortilla, makes a healthy snack for kids & grown-ups alike.

Ingredients

4 6-inch flour tortillas

4 tbsp. Creamy peanut butter

1 Banana

4 Med. fresh strawberries

1 Med. fresh peach

1/4 cup Fresh blueberries

4 tbsp. Vanilla yogurt

Preparation

Wash fresh strawberries, blueberries, and peach; peel peach, halve and remove pit. For each burrito, spread 1 Tbsp. peanut butter evenly on a flour tortilla to within 1/2 inch of edge. Onto each tortilla distribute in a line along the center 1/4 sliced banana, 1 sliced fresh strawberry, 1/4 thinly sliced peach and approx. 1 Tbsp. blueberries. Drizzle 1 Tbsp. vanilla yogurt over the fruit. Carefully fold one side of tortilla over the fruit, tucking the edge under the fruit so it's not too loosely packed. Roll the folded & tucked portion of the burrito towards the other side; the peanut butter will help hold it together. If desired for small children, cut the burrito in half crosswise, using a diagonal cut. Enjoy!

Cook's Notes

Kids can help wash fruit and put the burritos together, but keep small hands away from sharp knives used for slicing fruit! This is our favorite combination of fruits, but of course the recipe can be adapted to include other fruit on hand, or scaled up using larger tortillas for a heartier snack or even a light summer lunch.

A healthy lunch my kids love eating at school. I love it because it is a snap to make. I add more yogurt than the recipe calls for.
