Wraps

Cold Wraps

Peel and thinly slice vegetables and wash ahead of time.
Try various types of coleslaw in a wrap: cabbage, carrot, brussels sprouts.
Wash lettuce in a salad spinner and refrigerate so that leaves are dry before using to avoid soggy wraps.
If eating right away, spread the tortilla with mayo or other sauce before piling on fillings, but if making ahead, avoid soggy wraps by using something like lettuce as a barrier (top and bottom) between watery fillings like tomatoes, feta cheese, mayonnaise or saucy fillings.
Store filled wraps packed tight against each other in a container to hold their shape or wrap individually.
