Ingredients
Scale
Wrap Ingredients
- 2 large tortillas (whole wheat or flour)
- 1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
Dressing
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Garnish
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, chopped fresh dill, salt, and pepper until well combined to create a flavorful dressing.
- Dress the tortillas: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface and evenly drizzle the dressing over them. Use the back of a spoon to spread the dressing across the surface.
- Assemble the wraps: Arrange thin cucumber slices evenly over each tortilla, then sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top, distributing it uniformly.
- Roll the tortillas: Carefully roll up each tortilla, tucking in the sides as you go, to form a compact and tight wrap.
- Toast the wraps: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and toast for 1-2 minutes on each side until they become crispy and golden brown, ensuring they hold together and develop texture.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet and slice into smaller, bite-sized pieces if desired. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a bright touch and serve immediately for best taste and texture.
Notes
- Use whole wheat tortillas for a healthier option.
- Make sure cucumber slices are thin to easily roll the wraps without tearing.
- Feel free to add other fresh vegetables like spinach or bell peppers for extra crunch.
- These wraps are best served immediately after toasting to maintain crispiness.
- Leftover wraps can be refrigerated but may lose their crisp texture.
