Ingredients

Scale
  • 6–8 thinly sliced deli turkey pieces (preferably low sodium and nitrate-free)
  • 1/4 cup classic garlic hummus
  • 2 large whole wheat or spinach tortillas (or low-carb/gluten-free wraps)
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced cucumber
  • 1/2 cup thin strips of bell pepper (red or yellow)
  • A handful of baby spinach or mixed greens, washed and dried
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrots (optional)
  • 1/4 avocado, sliced or mashed (optional)
  • A squeeze of lemon juice (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • A light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (optional)

Instructions

  1. Rinse and dry the spinach or greens thoroughly. Thinly slice cucumber, bell pepper, and shred the carrots. If using avocado, slice or mash it with a little lemon juice to prevent browning. This step should take about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Place your whole wheat or spinach wraps flat on a clean surface or plate.
  3. Using a butter knife or spreader, cover each tortilla with about 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of hummus. Aim for a thin, even layer that reaches close to the edges but doesn’t make the wrap soggy.
  4. Lay turkey slices evenly over the hummus, covering the wrap but leaving a small margin at the edge to help with rolling. Use about 3-4 slices per wrap depending on size.
  5. Arrange the cucumber, bell pepper, spinach, and shredded carrots over the turkey. If you’re using avocado, add it here. Sprinkle lightly with salt and fresh cracked pepper.
  6. Starting from one edge, roll the tortilla tightly but gently to avoid tearing. The hummus acts like glue, helping everything stay together.
  7. Use a sharp knife to cut the roll into halves or bite-sized pieces, depending on preference. Serve immediately or wrap tightly for lunch on the go.

Notes

Use room temperature tortillas to prevent cracking. Pat veggies dry to avoid soggy wraps. Spread hummus thinly to keep the wrap from tearing. Wrap tightly but gently. For best freshness, assemble just before eating or keep hummus and veggies separate if prepping ahead.
