Ingredients
Scale
Wraps and Filling
- 2 large tortillas (whole wheat or flour)
- 1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped
Dressing
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Garnish
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, chopped dill, salt, and pepper until well combined, creating a fresh, tangy dressing.
- Dress the Tortillas: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Drizzle the dressing evenly over each tortilla and spread it gently with the back of a spoon to cover the surface.
- Add the Filling: Evenly layer the thin cucumber slices and crumbled feta cheese over each tortilla, ensuring consistent distribution for every bite.
- Roll the Wraps: Carefully fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly to enclose the filling, forming secure wraps.
- Toast the Wraps: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the rolled wraps seam-side down and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until the tortillas turn crispy and golden brown.
- Slice and Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet. Slice them into smaller, bite-sized pieces if desired. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- You can use whole wheat or flour tortillas depending on your preference.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to the dressing.
- Wraps are best served fresh and warm to maintain their crispiness.
- Leftover wraps can be stored wrapped in foil and refrigerated, but they may lose some crispness.
- Adding other fresh herbs like mint or basil can enhance the flavor profile.
