Ingredients
Scale
Wraps and Protein
- 4 large tortillas (flour or whole wheat)
- 8 ounces sliced ham (thick-cut)
- 4 slices cheese (cheddar or Swiss)
Vegetables and Extras
- 2 cups fresh lettuce
- 1 cup sliced cucumbers
- 1 cup bell peppers (any color)
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 avocado, sliced (optional)
Sauces
- 2 tablespoons ranch or honey mustard (to drizzle)
Instructions
- Cook the Ham: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange the ham slices in a single layer and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until the edges turn golden brown and become deliciously crispy.
- Soften the Tortillas: Place the tortillas between damp paper towels and microwave for 20 to 30 seconds until they are soft and flexible. Alternatively, wrap them in foil and bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 5 minutes.
- Prepare the Tortillas: Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface. Drizzle ranch or honey mustard sauce evenly over the surface, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.
- Add Cheese: Place a slice of cheddar or Swiss cheese over the sauce on each tortilla to ensure it melts nicely when heated.
- Add Vegetables and Avocado: Arrange fresh lettuce, sliced cucumbers, bell peppers, shredded carrots, and avocado slices (if using) in a neat row across the center of each tortilla.
- Roll the Wraps: Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla over the filling, then tuck in the side flaps snugly. Continue rolling away from you to form a tight wrap, ensuring the filling is secure inside.
- Crisp the Wraps: Place each wrap seam-side down in the skillet over medium-low heat. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese inside is melted, creating a crispy exterior.
Notes
- You can substitute the ham with turkey or chicken for variation.
- Use gluten-free tortillas if you want a gluten-free version.
- Feel free to swap ranch or honey mustard with your favorite sauce or dressing.
- For extra crunch, add thinly sliced radishes or sprouts.
- Make sure not to overfill the wraps to prevent them from bursting during cooking.
