Description
A quick and satisfying lunch wrap filled with deli turkey, sharp cheddar, crisp apple, and a tangy coleslaw mix.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large (10-inch / 25 cm) flour tortillas or flatbreads
- 6 oz (170g) thinly sliced deli turkey
- 3 oz (85g) sliced sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup (90g) chopped romaine or green leaf lettuce
- 1/2 medium crisp apple (like Fuji or Gala)
- 1 cup (85g) undressed coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
- 1 tbsp (15ml) apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp (5ml) olive oil
- 1 tsp (5ml) honey
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- First, prepare the apple slaw. In a medium bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper.
- Cut the apple half into thin matchsticks. Add the apple matchsticks and the coleslaw mix to the bowl with the dressing.
- Toss everything together until the apple and vegetables are evenly coated. Set aside.
- Lay the two tortillas on a flat work surface.
- Arrange the lettuce down the center of each tortilla, leaving a border of about 1 inch (2.5 cm) on the sides.
- Layer the sliced turkey over the lettuce, followed by the slices of cheddar cheese.
- Spoon the apple slaw mixture evenly over the cheese on each wrap, distributing it down the center.
- To roll, fold the left and right sides of the tortilla in over the filling. Then, starting from the bottom edge, roll the tortilla up tightly to form a secure wrap.
- Slice each wrap in half on a diagonal with a sharp knife and serve.
Notes
- For the best texture, serve the wraps immediately after preparing them. The tortilla will soften over time.
- If you are packing these for lunch, consider packing the slaw in a separate container and adding it just before you eat to prevent a soggy wrap.
- A spread of Dijon mustard or mayonnaise on the tortilla before adding the fillings is a nice addition.
- Ensure your tortillas are at room temperature or slightly warmed so they are pliable and easy to roll without cracking.
