In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice from half a lemon, olive oil, dried oregano, and ground black pepper. Whisk together to make a simple dressing.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, chopped Kalamata olives, and feta cheese.
Pour the lemon-olive oil dressing over the quinoa mixture and toss until well combined.
Place the whole wheat wrap on a flat surface. Layer the fresh spinach leaves evenly across the base of the wrap.
Spoon the quinoa mixture over the spinach leaves.
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for added flavor and color.
Carefully roll up the wrap tightly, folding in the sides as you go to enclose the filling.
Once rolled, you can slice the wrap in half for easier handling.
Serve immediately to enjoy its fresh flavors.
