-
Stir the yogurt and mustard together in a small bowl.
-
Lay the tortillas flat and spread each with the yogurt mixture, leaving a 2 cm border.
-
Layer the turkey, apple, lettuce and red onion down the centre of each tortilla and add the pepper.
-
Fold in the sides, roll up tightly and cut in half on the diagonal.
Things to Watch For
- Use turkey you have cooked at home and sliced thin; shop-bought deli slices are far saltier.
- Cut the apple at the last minute and toss it with a drop of lemon juice if it must wait.
- Warm the tortillas for a few seconds first so that they roll without cracking.
The Short Version
A lunch for the weeks when apples are crisp and sharp. No cooking is needed. Thin matchsticks of apple do the job that pickles do in a deli sandwich, adding crunch and a little acid. Choose a crisp, tart variety so that the matchsticks hold their shape.
The filling is turkey breast that has been cooked at home and carved thin. Deli turkey is high in sodium and often contains added phosphates, which is what this wrap avoids. A spread of Greek yogurt and mustard replaces the usual mayonnaise or cream cheese. Mix them well.
Roll the wrap tightly and slice it in half on the diagonal. Lettuce and apple add crunch, and red onion adds bite. A small flour tortilla is the saltiest part of the wrap, so the tortillas here are 20 cm across and about 40 g each. Wrap in paper for a lunch box. Keep the wraps cold until you eat them.
