Turkey Wraps Recipe

Tortillas: Soft flatbreads that serve as the base for the wraps.

Turkey breast: Sliced deli meat that provides protein and flavor.

Lettuce: Fresh greens that add crunch and freshness.

Tomatoes: Diced for a juicy and tangy element.

Cheese: Shredded to add a creamy and savory taste.

Mayonnaise: Used as a spread to add moisture and flavor.

To ensure your tortillas stay pliable and don't crack when rolling, warm them slightly in a microwave or on a skillet for a few seconds before assembling. This will make them easier to work with and help them hold their shape better.

• Allow the turkey wraps to cool completely if they were heated or cooked.
• Wrap each tortilla individually in plastic wrap or aluminum foil to maintain freshness.
• Place the wrapped turkey wraps in an airtight container or a resealable plastic bag to prevent any air from entering.
• Store the container or bag in the refrigerator if you plan to consume the wraps within 3-4 days.
• For longer storage, place the individually wrapped turkey wraps in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for about 1-2 hours until they are firm.
• Once frozen, transfer the turkey wraps to a resealable freezer bag or airtight container, making sure to remove as much air as possible to prevent freezer burn.
• Label the container or bag with the date to keep track of their freshness.
• When ready to eat, thaw the turkey wraps in the refrigerator overnight or use the defrost setting on your microwave.
• For a warm wrap, reheat in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes until heated through.
• Enjoy your turkey wraps with a side of fresh salad or soup for a complete meal.

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Wrap the turkey wraps in aluminum foil to keep them moist. Place them on a baking sheet and heat for about 10-15 minutes or until warmed through.
• For a quicker method, use a microwave. Place the turkey wraps on a microwave-safe plate and cover them with a damp paper towel. Microwave on medium power for 1-2 minutes, checking halfway through to ensure they are evenly heated.
• If you prefer a crispy texture, use a skillet. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the turkey wraps seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and heated through.
• For an air fryer option, preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Place the turkey wraps in the basket and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until they are crispy and warmed through.
