Ingredients for This Turkey Hummus Wrap
The beauty of this turkey hummus wrap is how simple it is to put together. Aside from the hummus and the turkey, you can use whatever else you have on hand that would taste good in a salad.
Hummus: A creamy hummus base not only adds a rich flavor but also provides a hearty dose of protein, keeping you fuller for longer.
Turkey Meat: Opt for lean turkey breast from your grocery store’s deli counter; it’s low in fat and high in protein, ideal for weight loss and muscle maintenance.
This healthy lunch wrap is also a great way to use leftover Thanksgiving turkey or leftover turkey tenderloin.
Diced Tomato: Fresh from the produce bin, tomatoes add juiciness and a burst of freshness.
Diced Cucumber: Adds a refreshing crunch and helps keep the wrap light and hydrating.
Mixed Greens: A handful of baby spinach or your favorite greens injects vitamins and color into your wrap.
Sandwich Wrap: Choose a regular flour tortilla or a gluten-free tortilla from brands like La Tortilla Factory for those looking for healthy, gluten-free options.
Salt and Pepper: Simple seasonings that enhance the natural flavors of the other ingredients.
How to Make a Turkey Hummus Wrap
- Lay out your sandwich wrap on a clean surface.
- Spread hummus evenly across the center of the tortilla, leaving about an inch area near the outer edge of the wrap.
- Layer slices of turkey, diced tomatoes, and cucumbers on top of the hummus.
- Add a generous amount of mixed greens.
- For best results, sprinkle a little salt and pepper before the final fold.
- Fold the bottom and top inch of the wrap inward, then roll the wrap burrito style, ensuring the ingredients are snugly enveloped.
- Finally, wrap tightly in plastic wrap to maintain freshness, or if you’re eating immediately, cut in half and serve.
Variations and Substitutions
- Veggie Hummus Wrap: Omit the turkey and add more fresh veggies like bell peppers and red onions for a hearty vegetarian option.
- Greek Turkey Wrap: Incorporate feta cheese, kalamata olives, and red onion for a Mediterranean twist.
- Spicy Hummus Turkey Wrap: Use red pepper hummus and add slices of jalapeño for those who prefer a kick.
What to Serve with This
Pair this wrap with a side of crisp vegetables or a small serving of fruit for a balanced meal. Our crispy kale chips and fruit salad are great additions to this healthy lunch idea.
For those on the go, keeping a separate container with a handful of nuts or baked chips could also complement the wrap perfectly.
