The California Roll Wrap is a modern twist on the classic sushi roll. The dish originated in California in the 1970s, where chefs decided to create an inside-out sushi roll with avocado, crabmeat, and cucumber, instead of the traditional raw fish. The ingredients were combined with seasoned rice, wrapped in seaweed and then sliced into bite-sized pieces. Over time, the sushi roll became popular worldwide, and many variations of the dish were created. This California Roll Wrap recipe is perfect for those who want to enjoy the flavors of sushi in a less complicated way, as it features all the classic ingredients rolled into a tortilla wrap.

3.Add some chopped avocado, cucumber, crabmeat and green onion on top of the rice mixture.
4.Roll the tortilla tightly into a wrap, tucking the filling in as you go along.
5.Slice diagonally and serve chilled.
