When you are looking for a light, yet filling lunch, these Italian Lunchmeat Whole Wheat Wraps are the way to go! They are easy to make, delicious to eat and simple to serve! I love being able to serve tasty meals that can be handheld, don’t you?
If you don’t have a lot of time on your hands, these Whole Wheat Wraps are a great choice! They are really easy and quick to prepare and to cook, you won’t need to be standing at the stove long to have these tasty little wraps of goodness in your hands.
With the busy schedule that my family maintains, we like to have Italian Whole Wheat Wraps for dinner sometimes too as they are super easy to prepare in advance. If you too are constantly running, these are a good dinner option to put into rotation at your house. They taste great hot or cold so you can prepare these early in the day and leave them in the fridge to grab when you get back from all of your many activities.
Whole Wheat Wraps are also really great for packing on the go! Do you do brown bag lunches? If you are tired of making the same old PB&J or Ham & Cheese sandwiches, try these out! Pack them with some cottage cheese, or some sliced fruit and oh my goodness, lunchtime will be exciting again!
WHY IT WORKS
- Can be served at lunch or dinner.
- Sometimes you just need a meal that doesn’t require a plate. This is that meal.
- Tastes great hot or cold, so you can prepare them in advance for busy days.
RECIPE VARIATIONS
- Add any ingredient you wish to pair with these Italian ingredients.
- Skip the tomatoes if you aren’t a tomato fan.
- Cook them in advance and keep in the fridge throughout the day, these do taste great cold as well.
- Enjoy red onion? Throw it on too!
COOK’S TIPS
- Be sure to pull the wrap off of the pan as soon as the tortilla is lightly browned to avoid overcooking.
- Fill your tortilla generously, but keep in mind that you still need to be able to fold it closed to eat!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO MAKE AN ITALIAN LUNCHMEAT WHOLE WHEAT WRAP
- Whole Wheat Wraps
- turkey
- ham
- salami
- lettuce
- banana peppers
- Colby Cheese (it’s what I had on hand!)
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Olive Oil or Italian Dressing
HOW TO MAKE A WHOLE WHEAT WRAP
Place your whole wheat tortilla in a medium/low skillet.
On half of the tortilla layer your ingredients starting with half of a piece of cheese, turkey, ham and salami.
Next add on your lettuce, banana peppers and cherry tomatoes if you are including them.
Drizzle with olive oil or Italian Dressing. I personally use Garlic Expressions…it’s delish!
On the other half of your tortilla place your other half of cheese and flip over on top of the ingredients.
Using a spatula or large spoon press the top of the tortilla firmly so that the cheese on top melts into the meats and it “seals” it.
Remove from skillet once the tortilla is lightly toasted.
