Instructions

Prepare the Tortillas

Lay the whole wheat tortillas flat on a clean surface.

Add the Fillings

Spread hummus or mayonnaise on each tortilla if using. Layer 2 slices of turkey, 1 slice of cheese, and top with mixed greens, cucumbers, and bell peppers.

Wrap It Up

Tightly roll each tortilla from one end to the other, ensuring the fillings stay inside. Slice the wraps in half for easier eating.

Serve your wraps with a side of fruit or chips for a complete meal!

Tips for Customization

One of the best aspects of this wrap is its adaptability. Feel free to swap out turkey for chicken, ham, or even a plant-based protein like tofu to suit your dietary needs. Changing the cheese type can also add a new flavor dimension, so consider trying pepper jack for some heat or Swiss for a milder taste.

Add more veggies to boost the nutritional value. Shredded carrots, avocado slices, or even roasted red peppers can elevate the flavor profile while adding crunch and color.

Storage and Freshness

To keep your wraps fresh for longer, wrap each one tightly in parchment paper or plastic wrap before placing them in the refrigerator. This method prevents them from drying out and maintains their delicious taste and texture.

If you’re planning to store them for more than a couple of days, consider freezing the wraps. Just make sure to wrap them well to avoid freezer burn. Thaw them overnight in the refrigerator before enjoying them again.
