What to keep in mind.
5 tips from the recipe — small details that make a real difference to the final dish.
- 1For a sturdier wrap, warm the tortilla for 10 seconds in the microwave to make it more pliable and less likely to tear.
- 2Pat the tomato and cucumber slices dry with a paper towel before adding them to prevent the wrap from getting soggy.
- 3Spread the creamy mixture all the way to the edges of the tortilla to help seal the wrap and add flavor to every bite.
- 4Use low-sodium turkey breast to control the salt level, especially since the mayo and mustard add saltiness too.
- 5Store assembled wraps tightly in plastic wrap in the fridge for up to 4 hours; cut just before serving for the best texture.
