How to Make Turkey Wraps
It’s super easy to make the best turkey wrap ever!
- Spread cream cheese and cranberry sauce equally between two tortillas.
- Divide remaining ingredients over the two wraps.
- Roll tightly and refrigerate in plastic wrap or serve immediately.
Tips for Perfect Wraps
- If you heat the tortillas in the microwave for a short time, they won’t break as you roll them.
- Make sure that the sauces and ingredients are about ½ inch from the edges all the way around. This will help keep everything from spilling out.
- Once turkey wraps are all put together, they should be tightly wrapped in plastic wrap and put in the fridge. Make them ahead of time; they’ll stay good in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Put some spreadable cream cheese on the tortilla before adding the other things to make pinwheels for a party. Cover with plastic wrap and put in the fridge for at least two hours or overnight. Cut into 1″ slices.
PRO TIP: The best way to roll wraps is like wrapping a burrito. Once everything is in place, fold the tortilla up about a quarter of the way from the bottom and then overlap it from left to right. Folding up from the bottom keeps all the goodies inside!.
