Ingredients
  

  • 1 large whole-wheat tortilla (10-inch works best; choose a flexible brand for easy rolling)
  • 4–6 ounces sliced deli turkey (nitrate-free if possible)
  • 1/2 ripe avocado, sliced or lightly mashed
  • 1/2 cup mixed greens (spinach, romaine, or spring mix)
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced cucumber
  • 2–3 slices tomato (optional, but adds juiciness)
  • 2 tablespoons red onion, very thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 3 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt (2% or whole milk for best texture)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Pinch of cumin (optional, for warmth)
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, lime juice, Dijon, garlic powder, cumin, and a pinch of salt. Taste and adjust. You want bright, tangy, and lightly savory.
  2. Warm the tortilla: Heat the tortilla in a dry skillet for 10–15 seconds per side or microwave for 10 seconds. A warm tortilla is more flexible and won’t crack when rolling.
  3. Layer the base: Spread the yogurt-lime sauce over the tortilla, leaving a 1-inch border. This keeps fillings from squishing out.
  4. Add the greens and veggies: Pile the mixed greens down the center. Add carrots, cucumber, tomato slices, and red onion. Sprinkle with cilantro if using.
  5. Add the turkey and avocado: Lay the turkey slices evenly over the veggies. Place the avocado on top and gently smash it with a fork to help it stick. Season with salt and black pepper.
  6. Roll it up: Fold the sides inward, then roll from the bottom up, keeping it tight as you go. If you like, sear the seam side down in a warm skillet for 30 seconds to seal.
  7. Slice and serve: Cut the wrap in half on a slight bias. Serve immediately, or wrap tightly in parchment for lunch on the go.
