Ingredients
- Tortilla: Use a soft tortilla so it doesn’t crack when rolling.
- Turkey: Opt for freshly sliced smoked turkey breast or leftover holiday turkey.
- Sharp Cheddar Cheese: Thinly slice or shred for easier wrapping.
- Romaine Lettuce: Wash and dry well before using.
- Roma Tomatoes: Slice thinly and remove excess seeds to avoid a soggy wrap.
- Avocado: Choose ripe avocados that are slightly soft to the touch.
- Ranch Dressing or Mayo: Use a high-quality dressing or homemade ranch.
- Bacon (Optional): Try baking up a bunch in the oven.
How To Make Turkey Wraps
- Cook Bacon (if using): Cook until crispy, then dab with paper towels.
- Spread Dressing: Spread ranch or mayo all over the tortilla.
- Add Ingredients: Add lettuce, tomato slices, a pinch of salt and pepper, avocado slices, turkey, cheese, and bacon (if using) one at a time.
- Roll and Cut: Roll the tortilla tightly, cut in half, and serve right away.
Quick Tip
Alternatively, you can choose to skip the step of folding in the sides and instead roll up the Turkey Wrap tightly like a cylinder.
How Do You Fold A Turkey Wrap?
Folding a wrap might seem intimidating, but it’s actually quite simple. Here’s how to do it:
- Use a sharp knife to cut the wrap in half, either at an angle or across the center.
- Lay your ingredients in a row in the middle of the tortilla, leaving a little bit of space at both ends.
- Fold the end of the tortilla nearest you over the filling, folding it snugly.
- Fold the edges of the tortilla toward the center to wrap it around the filling.
- Roll the tortilla tightly away from you, keeping the filling in place as you go.
- Make sure to fold the edges in to seal the wrap.
Variations
Switch Things Up
- Southwest Wrap: Add sliced turkey breast, black beans, corn, avocado, salsa, and sharp Cheddar cheese for a bold flavor.
- Greek Wrap: Fill your wrap with sliced turkey, cucumber, tomato, red onion, feta cheese, and a spoonful of tzatziki for fresh, tasty flavors.
- Caesar Wrap: Use sliced turkey breast, romaine lettuce, Parmesan cheese, and Caesar dressing to make a wrap that tastes like Caesar salad.
- BBQ Wrap: Mix shredded turkey with BBQ sauce, then add coleslaw and pickles for a tangy, crunchy wrap.
- Pesto Wrap: Spread pesto on your wrap, then add sliced turkey, roasted red peppers, and fresh mozzarella for an Italian-style wrap.
Storage
If you want to save Turkey Wraps, it’s best to keep the food separate and put them together right before eating. This keeps the wraps from getting soggy and makes sure everything is fresh when you’re ready to eat.
When you’re ready to eat, just put the wrap together and enjoy!

This is our go-to wrap. It’s goof-proof and so darn tasty! It’s high time I officially thank you (since today is probably the 50th time I have made it!)

I am so thrilled to hear this! Thanks Michael! 🙂
I found your site yesterday when looking for healthy recipes. We made these (sorry, minus the avocado!) last night with leftover turkey from Thanksgiving (we’re in Canada!) and they were delish! I have Celiac so I substituted a gluten free wrap but it was easy enough for our kids to make dinner and we all devoured them. Definitely going into the rotation of our dinners in the future!
I am so happy to hear this, and so glad you were able to work with what you had! Thanks so much for your comment! 🙂
So creative. The perfect lunch/summer dinner! These looks delish!
hey girl -these wraps look so yummy!
