Quick Facts
Yield: Serves 2
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 0 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
For the Main Dish:
2 large whole wheat tortillas (10-inch size)
6 ounces sliced deli turkey breast
½ cup hummus (classic or flavored)
½ cup shredded carrots
½ cup cucumber, thinly sliced
½ cup baby spinach leaves
¼ cup red bell pepper, thinly sliced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
How I Make It
Step 1:
Lay the tortillas flat on your cutting board. Spread a generous **3 tablespoons of hummus** on each tortilla, making sure to cover from edge to edge but leaving about ½ inch from the border. This keeps the wrap from getting soggy and falling apart later.
Step 2:
Next, layer the **sliced turkey evenly** over the hummus. Try to distribute the meat so you get turkey in every bite.
Step 3:
Add the fresh veggies: **shredded carrots, cucumber slices, spinach, and red bell pepper**. The crunch and color here make the wrap exciting and fresh. Sprinkle a little **salt and pepper** over the veggies to bring out their natural flavors.
Step 4:
Now for the wrap-up! Fold in the edges of the tortilla slightly, then roll tightly from one end to the other. If you find your wrap is a bit loose, wrap it in parchment or foil and press gently for a minute—it helps everything stick together.
Step 5:
Slice the wrap diagonally with a sharp knife—this is the magic moment when all those colorful layers peek out. Yum!
Variations & Tips
Swap turkey with grilled chicken or roast beef for a different twist.
Add a smear of spicy mustard or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for extra flavor.
Use flavored hummus like roasted red pepper or garlic for more depth.
Substitute whole wheat tortillas with spinach or tomato basil wraps for a fun color change.
Throw in some avocado slices for creamy richness.
If you don’t have fresh veggies, use jarred roasted peppers and pre-shredded lettuce.
How I Like to Serve It
This wrap shines on busy lunch days or packed picnic baskets. Pair it with a crisp apple or crunchy kettle chips and an iced tea for a bright, balanced meal. It’s also perfect for a light dinner with a side of soup when you want something easy but satisfying.
Notes
Store leftover wraps tightly wrapped in foil or plastic wrap in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
If prepping ahead, keep the veggies separate and assemble just before eating to maintain crunch.
