Ingredients

Scale

Wraps and Fillings

  • 4 large tortilla wraps (whole wheat or regular)
  • 8 slices of deli turkey
  • 4 slices of cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup of spinach or mixed greens
  • ½ cup of sliced bell peppers (any color)
  • ¼ cup of cream cheese (or hummus)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Tortillas: Lay out each tortilla flat on a clean surface to make assembly easy.
  2. Spread the Base: Evenly spread about 1 tablespoon of cream cheese or hummus over each tortilla, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges to prevent overflow when rolling.
  3. Add Turkey and Cheese: Place two slices of deli turkey on each tortilla, followed by one slice of cheddar cheese on top of the turkey, layering evenly.
  4. Add Veggies: Distribute the spinach or mixed greens and sliced bell peppers evenly over the cheese layer. Lightly season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Roll Up: Carefully roll up each tortilla tightly, starting from one edge, ensuring the filling stays inside. You can secure with toothpicks if needed.
  6. Slice and Serve: Slice each rolled-up tortilla into 2 or 3 smaller pieces for easy eating, or leave whole for a larger wrap. Serve immediately or wrap tightly for a packed lunch.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian version, replace turkey with additional cheese or grilled vegetables.
  • Use hummus as a dairy-free alternative to cream cheese.
  • Whole wheat tortillas add extra fiber and nutrients.
  • Customize fillings with your favorite veggies like cucumbers, tomatoes, or avocado slices.
  • To keep the roll ups fresh, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
