Lay out the whole grain tortillas on a clean, dry surface.
Spread about 1/4 of the mashed avocado evenly over each tortilla to add creaminess and healthy fats.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of Dijon mustard on top of the avocado on each tortilla for added flavor.
Place 2 slices of low-sodium, lean ham on each tortilla, arranging them flat and evenly spaced.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of reduced-fat cheddar cheese over the ham on each tortilla.
Divide the baby spinach evenly among the tortillas, placing it on top of the cheese.
Distribute the sliced red bell pepper evenly on each tortilla for a crunchy texture.
Starting at one end, tightly roll each tortilla to form a roll, ensuring the filling stays inside.
Slice each roll into 1-inch pieces for serving, using a sharp knife to avoid flattening.
Arrange the slices on a platter and lightly spray with olive oil cooking spray for added moisture and flavor.
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve to maintain freshness.
