Ingredients
Scale
Cheese Spread
- 1 scallion, thinly sliced
- 4 oz. crumbled goat cheese
- 4 oz. plain whole-milk Greek yogurt
- 3 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- Kosher salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Salad
- 4 cups loosely packed arugula
- 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh dill
- 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice
Wrap Filling & Assembly
- 4 store-bought or homemade lavash bread sheets
- 1/2 lb. sliced deli turkey, divided
- 4 roasted red peppers, cut into thin strips (about 1 cup), divided
- 4 Persian cucumbers (or 2 English cucumbers), cut lengthwise into quarters, divided
Instructions
- Prepare the Cheese Spread: In a medium bowl, combine the thinly sliced scallion, crumbled goat cheese, plain Greek yogurt, and 2 teaspoons of extra-virgin olive oil. Season generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir until well combined and creamy.
- Make the Arugula Salad: In a large bowl, gently toss the arugula, chopped fresh dill, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Mix just enough to coat the greens evenly without bruising them.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay out each lavash sheet on a clean work surface. Spread an even layer of the goat cheese mixture over the lavash, leaving about a 1-inch border on all sides to help with rolling.
- Add the Fillings: Divide the sliced deli turkey, roasted red pepper strips, cucumber quarters, and the arugula salad evenly among the lavash sheets, placing them over the cheese spread.
- Roll the Wraps: Fold one half of the lavash over the filling like a burrito and then roll tightly to enclose all the ingredients. Tuck in the ends securely to seal the wrap.
- Serve: Cut each wrap in half diagonally for easier handling and serve immediately, or wrap tightly in foil to take on the go.
Notes
- Use homemade lavash or store-bought lavash; both work well for this recipe.
- For added crunch, consider adding thinly sliced red onion or radishes.
- Substitute the goat cheese with cream cheese if preferred for a milder flavor.
- Roasted red peppers can be jarred or homemade from fresh peppers.
- These wraps can be made a few hours in advance; keep refrigerated and wrap tightly in plastic wrap to maintain freshness.
- To keep wraps from becoming soggy, pat cucumbers dry before assembling.
