Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 wraps
Ingredients
- 4 large kale leaves
- 8 oz sliced turkey
- 1/2 avocado, sliced
- 1/4 cup hummus
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
Instructions
- Carefully wash the kale leaves under cool running water, gently patting them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
- Lay out each kale leaf flat on a clean cutting board, removing any thick central stem by carefully cutting along both sides to create a smooth wrap surface.
- Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of hummus evenly across the center of each kale leaf, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Layer 2 oz of sliced turkey meat on top of the hummus, ensuring even distribution across the leaf.
- Distribute shredded carrots evenly over the turkey, adding a fresh crunch to the wrap.
- Carefully arrange sliced avocado on top of the carrots, creating a visually appealing and flavorful layer.
- Gently fold the bottom of the kale leaf up, then fold in the sides, creating a tight wrap that encases all ingredients.
- For easier handling, you can optionally wrap each completed wrap in parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- Slice wraps diagonally in half if desired, and serve immediately for optimal freshness and texture.
Tips
- Choose fresh, crisp kale leaves with minimal blemishes for the best wrap texture.
- Remove the tough kale stems completely to ensure a tender, easy-to-eat wrap.
- Pat ingredients dry after washing to prevent soggy wraps.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning or a dash of hot sauce.
- If meal prepping, wrap individually in parchment paper and store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- For a warmer version, you can lightly toast the wrap in a skillet for 1-2 minutes before serving.
- Experiment with different protein options like grilled chicken or tofu for variety.
- Use ripe avocados for the creamiest texture and richest flavor.
