  3. 4 large whole wheat tortillas – Whole grain tortillas add fiber; gluten-free wraps work well too.

  2. If using chicken, ensure it’s cooked and shredded.
  3. Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface.
  4. Evenly distribute the spinach, feta, and chicken or chickpeas across the tortillas.

  6. Slice the wraps in half and serve immediately or wrap tightly for later.

Things I’ve Learned

One common issue is soggy wraps, so be sure to dry the spinach well before adding it. These wraps store well in the fridge for 2-3 days, making them great for meal prep. Reheating is not recommended as they taste best fresh. Additionally, you can prep the filling in advance to make assembly quick and easy. For extra flavor, consider adding some sun-dried tomatoes or roasted red peppers.

FAQs

Q: Can I use a different type of cheese?

A: Absolutely! Mozzarella or a sharp cheddar can work well.

Q: What can I substitute for chicken?

A: Chickpeas or even sliced turkey are great alternatives.

Q: How do I store leftovers?

A: Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or tin foil and refrigerate; they’ll keep well for 2-3 days.

Q: Can I make these vegan?

A: Yes! Just use chickpeas and omit the cheese or substitute with a vegan cheese.

Q: What else can I add to my wraps?

A: Feel free to add sliced bell peppers, cucumbers, or even avocado for some extra crunch!
