A quick, fresh, and satisfying wrap combining crunchy veggies, savory deli meats, and a tangy dressing, perfect for easy lunch prep and meal prep.

Ingredients

  • Large tortilla wraps (flour, whole wheat, or spinach wrap for extra nutrients)
  • Leafy greens (romaine or mixed greens, roughly chopped)
  • Thinly sliced deli meats (turkey, ham, or salami; Boar’s Head preferred)
  • Provolone or mozzarella cheese slices
  • Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Cucumber, thinly sliced
  • Red onion, thinly sliced (optional)
  • Banana peppers or mild pickled peppers
  • Olive oil (extra virgin)
  • Red wine vinegar
  • Dijon mustard
  • Garlic powder
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prep your veggies and salad ingredients: Wash and dry leafy greens thoroughly. Slice cherry tomatoes in halves, cucumber thinly, and red onion paper-thin if using. Arrange deli meats and cheese for layering.
  2. Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  3. Assemble the salad: In a large bowl, combine greens, tomatoes, cucumber, onion, and banana peppers. Drizzle with about half the dressing and toss gently to coat evenly. Reserve remaining dressing.
  4. Build the wrap: Lay a large tortilla flat. Layer deli meat slices evenly, add one or two cheese slices, then spoon a generous portion of the dressed salad mixture over the top. Fold the bottom edge up over the filling and roll tightly from one side to encase everything.
  5. Wrap and store (optional): Wrap each salad wrap tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper. Store in the fridge up to 2 days. Slice in half diagonally before serving. For a warm option, press in a pan for 30 seconds to slightly melt the cheese.

Notes

Dry greens thoroughly to avoid soggy wraps. Dress salad lightly to keep freshness. Use room temperature ingredients to prevent wrap cracking. Wrap tightly for storage. For a warm twist, press wrap in a pan for 30 seconds to melt cheese slightly.
