One of the best things about summer is fresh sweet corn, and this recipe is a definite standout. We love its creamy dressing, crunchy panko coating and spicy jalapeno kick.

Tips:
- Selecting the Right Tortillas: Opt for large, pliable tortillas that won't easily tear when filled. Corn or flour tortillas both work well.
- Preparing the Vegetables: Ensure the lettuce is crispy and fresh, and thinly slice the tomatoes, onions, and jalapeños for even distribution in the wrap.
- Balancing Flavors: Adjust the amount of taco seasoning to your desired level of spiciness. Use a variety of toppings to create a harmonious blend of flavors and textures.
- Layering Techniques: Start with a layer of lettuce to prevent the tortilla from becoming soggy. Add the fillings in layers, ensuring each ingredient is evenly distributed.
- Folding and Wrapping: Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla over the filling, then the sides, and finally roll it up tightly. This prevents the ingredients from falling out.
