How to Make a Sandwich Wrap

Sandwich wraps enclose all of the ingredients to keep you from making a big mess.

Sandwich wraps can be found as a healthy alternative in most fast food restaurants today. They can also be made at home with little effort and are less messy for kids' school lunches than that gooey peanut butter and jelly tradition. Wraps can contain more ingredients than a normal sandwich, as they are enclosed inside the wrap to keep them from falling out. They can be made for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It is best to experiment with various ingredients to see what works best for your taste pallet.

Things You'll Need

• 1 10-inch tortilla
• 1/2-pound turkey tenderloin cut into 1/2-inch slices
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 2 tbsp. finely chopped red onion
• 1/2 red pepper sliced into strips
• 1/2 yellow pepper sliced into strips
• 1/2 orange pepper sliced into strips
• 1 tbsp. finely chopped cilantro
• 1/8 cup goat cheese to taste
• 1/8 cup mozzarella cheese to taste
• 1/8 cup blue cheese to taste
• 3/4 teaspoon fresh lime juice
• 1/2 cup arugula

Instructions

1. 

   Stir a mixture of lime juice, red onion and cilantro.

   Mix together red onion, cilantro and lime juice in a small bowl. Season this with salt and pepper to taste.

2. 

   Heat olive oil to cook the turkey and peppers.

   Heat the olive oil in a skillet and stir in the turkey slices. Cook until they are browned on both sides.

3. 

   Heat the peppers until they are soft.

   Stir the pepper slices into the skillet and cook until they are tender.

4. Warm the tortilla in the microwave for 30 seconds. Lay it flat on the counter to fill with ingredients.

5. Layer the ingredients evenly in a rectangular shape on the bottom half of the tortilla. Start with the turkey and peppers from the skillet, followed by the various cheeses and lime juice mixture. Top it off with a layer of arugula.

6. Fold the left and right ends of the tortilla until they meet in the center of the wrap, or as close as you can get to meeting in the center.

7. Fold the bottom of the tortilla up over the ingredients and roll until the wrap is completed.
