ROMAINE ROLL-UPS 
1 lg. avocado
1 lg. tomato, coarsely chopped
1 sm. cucumber or 2 pickling cukes, peeled & chopped
1 tbsp. red onion, chopped (optional)
1-2 c. mung bean or alfalfa sprouts or both
1 tsp. Gulden's Spicy Brown mustard (optional)
1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 head Romaine lettuce, washed & dried

Slice avocado in half lengthwise. Remove seed and set aside. Scoop pulp from skin into medium-size bowl. Mash thoroughly with fork. Add tomato and cucumber to avocado. Add onion, if desired, mustard and lemon juice. Stir in sprouts. Arrange lettuce leaves around sides of large bowl in the form of a flower. Mound avocado mixture in center. To eat, place large spoonful of avocado in center of a lettuce leaf and roll leaf burrito-style. Serves 2.

NOTE: If you are not using the avocado mixture immediately, place it in a container with the pit. This will keep it from turning brown.
