A quick, healthy, and refreshing tortilla wrap perfect for hot summer days, combining crisp veggies, creamy yogurt-lime spread, and protein for a satisfying meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Fresh flour tortillas (8-inch size)
  • Mixed salad greens (baby spinach, arugula, or romaine)
  • 1/2 cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 10 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 red bell pepper, thin strips
  • 1/4 avocado, sliced or mashed
  • Cooked chicken breast or roasted chickpeas
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • Optional: chili flakes or hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare the creamy spread by combining 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, a pinch of salt, pepper, and chopped cilantro or parsley in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Thinly slice 1/2 cucumber, 1 red bell pepper, and halve about 10 cherry tomatoes. Toss with 1 teaspoon olive oil, a pinch of salt, and chili flakes if using. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Slice cooked chicken breast into thin strips or prepare roasted chickpeas ensuring they are cooled and slightly crunchy.
  4. Optional: Warm each fresh tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 15 seconds per side to make them pliable.
  5. Lay a tortilla flat and spread 2 tablespoons of the yogurt-lime mixture evenly over the center, leaving about 1 inch from the edges.
  6. Add about 1 cup of mixed salad greens on top of the spread.
  7. Layer the marinated veggies evenly over the greens.
  8. Add 1/4 sliced avocado and a portion of chicken or chickpeas on top.
  9. Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll tightly from bottom to top, keeping the filling snug.
  10. Serve immediately or wrap in parchment paper for later.

Notes

Do not overload the wrap to avoid leaks. Warm tortillas just enough to make them pliable but not crispy. Use the yogurt-lime spread to help keep the wrap together. Drain excess moisture from marinated veggies to prevent sogginess. Wrap tightly in parchment for storage and consume within 24 hours.
