Description
A refreshing and healthy veggie wrap filled with vibrant vegetables and a rich creamy herb dressing, perfect for lunch or gatherings.
Ingredients
- Whole-grain wraps
- Mixed greens (baby spinach, arugula, or spring mix)
- Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- Cucumber, peeled and julienned
- Carrot, shredded or thinly sliced
- Avocado, sliced
- Cherry tomatoes, halved
- Red onion, thinly sliced (optional)
- Fresh herbs (dill, parsley, chives)
- Greek yogurt, plain (full-fat or low-fat)
- Mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon (optional)
- Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- Garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Olive oil, a drizzle (optional)
Instructions
- Rinse all fresh produce thoroughly under cold water. Thinly slice the red bell pepper, cucumber, carrot, cherry tomatoes, and red onion, setting aside the mixed greens and avocado slices for later use.
- In a mixing bowl, combine ½ cup of plain Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise (if using), 1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice, and drizzle in 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add 1 clove of minced garlic and roughly 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh herbs like dill, parsley, or chives. Season generously with salt and pepper, then whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- To make the wraps more pliable, lightly warm the whole-grain wraps in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 20 seconds on each side, or microwave for 10 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel.
- Lay a warm wrap flat on your work surface. Spread about 2-3 tablespoons of the creamy herb dressing evenly over the center, leaving about an inch border around the edges. Layer on a handful of mixed greens followed by the sliced veggies and avocado.
- To roll, fold the bottom edge of the wrap over the filling, tuck in the sides, and continue rolling tightly until sealed. Use a toothpick to secure it if needed.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the wrap diagonally in half for a beautiful presentation and easier handling. Serve immediately or wrap tightly in parchment paper for later.
