Description
Brighten up your lunch break with this delicious gluten-free hummus turkey wrap. This healthy sandwich is an easy, delicious lunch that packs well for a day at work!
Ingredients
- 1 gluten-free tortilla or wrap*
- 1 1/2–2 Tablespoons hummus
- 2 oz. turkey (thinly sliced works best!)
- 2–3 slices tomato
- 4–6 thin slices of cucumber (or pickle!)
- 3 slices avocado (about 1/4 avocado)
- 4–5 thin slices bell pepper (or a few mild banana pepper rings)
- 1 cup loosely packed spring mix, lettuce, or salad greens
- 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar, or vinaigrette
- salt & pepper
Instructions
-
Consider Heating Your Wrap. If your tortilla or wrap is cold, I recommend warming it up on a plate for 10-15 seconds. A warm or room temperature tortilla is much easier to work with (especially when it’s gluten-free!)
-
Spread With Hummus. Then, spread a thin layer of hummus across the whole tortilla, leaving just 1/4 inch or so border at the edges.
-
Layer Turkey & Veggies. For easy wrapping, I build my sandwich by placing the turkey slices near one side of the tortilla (I usually use the right side). Place tomato slices, bell peppers, carrots, or other thin veggies on top of the turkey. Season with a sprinkle of salt & pepper.
-
Add Greens. Next to the turkey, place the salad greens in the center of the tortilla. Drizzle with red wine vinegar or vinaigrette, if desired.
- Roll Up Your Wrap. To start, fold the top and bottom ends of the tortilla in toward the center of the wrap. Then, roll, starting at the turkey side, rolling over the greens (use your fingers to tuck them in!) and finishing at the other side (that’s just hummus).
-
Finish, Then Pack & Serve. To finish, cut the wrap in half with a serrated knife, if desired, and enjoy right away. Or, pack in an airtight container for lunch.
Notes
- Measurements Are Loose! These are rough measurements for what you can add to your wrap. You can add more or less of any ingredient you choose. Just keep in mind that thinly sliced veggies & fillings will wrap more easily than anything thickly cut.
- Gluten-Free Wrap. We usually use 8-inch Mission gluten-free tortillas since they’re easy to find, but Siete makes burrito-size gluten-free tortillas that are great for wraps!
- Rolling Tips. To make it easier to roll, cover the whole wrap with hummus, only put toppings on 2/3 of the tortilla, leaving the last 1/3 with JUST hummus. (This will help the wrap fold and stay together better!)
- More Filling Ideas: thinly sliced cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, sliced olives, banana peppers/peperoncini, pickles, thinly grated or julienned carrots, ham slices, etc.
- Hummus. For variety, you can use any flavor of hummus you like! I love lemon hummus or red pepper hummus, especially.
