Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Lavash or large flatbread
- 0.5 cups Hummus
- 6 slices Thinly sliced smoked turkey breast
- 1 small Cucumber
- 6 pieces Cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cups Feta cheese
- 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Peel the cucumber if desired and cut it into thin strips (julienne style).
Halve the cherry tomatoes.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a simple dressing. Toss the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, spinach leaves, and feta cheese in the dressing and set aside.
Place a lavash or flatbread on a clean surface. Spread 1/4 cup of hummus evenly across the center of the bread, leaving about an inch of space around the edges.
Lay 3 slices of smoked turkey breast over the hummus.
Add half of the dressed vegetable mixture on top of the turkey slices.
Gently roll the flatbread tightly from one side to the other to form a wrap. Use parchment paper or foil to secure the roll if needed.
Repeat steps 4-7 with the second lavash to make the second sandwich.
Slice each roll in half diagonally and serve immediately, or wrap tightly and refrigerate for later.
