For those of you who are in a hurry this is the perfect lunch option! We bring this wrap to work all the time, it’s healthy and keeps you full. You can always change the turkey to chicken, ham, tofu, eggs or whatever you desire that day! You can also add some cheese and heat it up. Just use your imagination :) You can also prepare this the day before and keep it in a container or zip lock bag in your fridge over night :)

You’ll need:

  • 1 Whole Wheat Tortilla Wrap
  • 1 Leaf of Grand Rapids Lettuce
  • Bell Pepper (any color)
  • Cucumber
  • Avocado
  • 3 Slices of Lean Turkey fillet (ultra thin slices, the kind you get cold at the supermarket)
  • Pepper or Dressing of your choice

1. Wash and chop your vegetables, and dry them with a paper towel, that way your wrap doesn’t become soggy if your bringing it with you for lunch.

2. Get your wrap and place the lettuce leaf on top, then your cucumber, bell peppers and turkey on one half.

3. Season with some pepper or add a little bit of dressing and place the avocado on top. If your bringing the wrap with you, we suggest you take your dressing along in a little container because the dressing causes the wrap to get soggy.

4. Fold the wrap and enjoy!

Tips:

  • If you like to have this for dinner, use thicker turkey slices or even a chicken breast 😉
  • You can also add some, tomatoes, onions or even some black olives!
