Greek on the Go
November 6, 2011
The Mediterranean Wrap on the menu at Jason’s Deli inspired me to throw this together at home. It’s a healthy, and delicious, alternative to the everyday turkey sandwich. It’s quick and easy to put together and travels well…so it’s great to take to work for lunch or to the park for a picnic. I like to serve it with a Lemon Lentil Soup for an amazingly satisfying lunch.
It's a wrap!
Mediterranean Wrap
- Wheat tortilla wrap
- Hummus, homemade or store-bought
- Sliced deli turkey
- Crumbled feta
- Kalamata olives
- Roasted red peppers
Lay the tortilla out and pile all the ingredients, to taste, on top. Have fun with the ingredients! I like to also add red onion, cucumber or julienned carrots. Fold in two sides of the tortilla until they meet in the center then fold the bottom of the tortilla up to the center of the filling and roll until the wrap is tight. I like to wrap with aluminum foil to help hold it together or secure with a toothpick if serving immediately.
