Ingredients

• 2 pieces Lavash or large flatbread
• 0.5 cups Hummus
• 6 slices Thinly sliced smoked turkey breast
• 1 small Cucumber
• 6 pieces Cherry tomatoes
• 0.25 cups Feta cheese
• 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Peel the cucumber if desired and cut it into thin strips (julienne style).

Step 2

Halve the cherry tomatoes.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a simple dressing. Toss the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, spinach leaves, and feta cheese in the dressing and set aside.

Step 4

Place a lavash or flatbread on a clean surface. Spread 1/4 cup of hummus evenly across the center of the bread, leaving about an inch of space around the edges.

Step 5

Lay 3 slices of smoked turkey breast over the hummus.

Step 6

Add half of the dressed vegetable mixture on top of the turkey slices.

Step 7

Gently roll the flatbread tightly from one side to the other to form a wrap. Use parchment paper or foil to secure the roll if needed.

Step 8

Repeat steps 4-7 with the second lavash to make the second sandwich.

Step 9

Slice each roll in half diagonally and serve immediately, or wrap tightly and refrigerate for later.
