These turkey pinwheel wraps with avocado hummus are a quick, tasty, and protein-packed meal perfect for lunch or light dinner. They combine lean turkey, fresh veggies, and creamy avocado hummus for a satisfying and nutritious wrap.

Ingredients

  • Whole wheat or spinach tortilla wraps (8-inch size)
  • Lean sliced turkey breast (about 8 oz / 225g, preferably low sodium)
  • Fresh baby spinach leaves (1 cup / 30g, loosely packed)
  • Shredded carrots (½ cup / 60g)
  • Thinly sliced red bell pepper (½ cup / 50g)
  • Ripe avocado (1 medium, mashed)
  • Chickpeas (1 cup / 165g, drained and rinsed canned or cooked)
  • Tahini (2 tablespoons)
  • Fresh lemon juice (2 tablespoons)
  • Garlic clove (1 small, minced)
  • Olive oil (2 tablespoons, extra virgin)
  • Ground cumin (½ teaspoon)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Make the Avocado Hummus: In a food processor, combine ripe avocado, chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, and ground cumin. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add water a teaspoon at a time if too thick. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the Veggies: Wash and dry baby spinach. Thinly slice red bell pepper and shred carrots.
  3. Assemble the Wrap: Lay one tortilla flat. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of avocado hummus evenly over the surface. Layer about 2 oz (60g) turkey slices, spinach leaves, shredded carrots, and sliced red peppers.
  4. Roll It Up: Roll the tortilla tightly but gently from one edge. Use a bit of hummus to seal the end. Wrap in plastic wrap or parchment paper and chill for at least 15 minutes.
  5. Slice into Pinwheels: Remove from fridge, unwrap, and slice into 1-inch (2.5 cm) thick pinwheels. Arrange on a plate and serve.

Notes

Prepare avocado hummus close to serving time or store covered with plastic wrap pressed onto the surface to prevent browning. Chill wraps before slicing to keep shape. Warm tortillas briefly if dry to prevent tearing. Customize seasoning to taste. Can substitute gluten-free wraps or plant-based deli slices for dietary needs.
