Food Paragraph

The type of food that I made was a tortilla with avocado, cheddar cheese, chicken, a mixture of beef/brown beans, lettuce, and ranch dressing. It was a colourful blend of the soft green of the avocado, the ranges in browns of the chicken and mixture, the dark green of the lettuce, and the bright orange of the cheese. It smelled quite good; mainly like the chicken, which had just been cooked, but the fresh avocado smell and the tomato sauce in the mixture were detectable as well. Together, these ingredients made for an interesting mix of tastes and textures. The tortilla was a gluten-free brown rice wrap, so it was rather tasteless and very chew, and was a bit flaky, falling apart easily when you tried to pick it up. Its chewiness was quite complimentary to the soft, buttery texture of the avocado. The chicken was interesting, because it was probably one of the more dominant tastes; it was extremely salty and it had a strange, almost rubbery texture to it. The mixture of the beef and beans was mixed in with the cheese, which had melted from the heat of it, so it was a blend of the salty gooeyness of the cheese and the almost sweet flavour of the tomato sauce. The beef was chewy and the beans were well cooked and fell apart in your mouth with a grainy sort of feel. Finally, the lettuce added a nice crunch, though its taste was barely detectable, and it was a bit wilted from the heat of the meat, and the ranch dressing was creamy and tasted a bit like herbs, and it brought everything together by adding moisture to the concoction.
