Recipe Overview
- Preparation Time: 15 minutes
- Cooking Time: None
- Total Time: 15 minutes
- Servings: 2 wraps
- Category: Lunch/Snacks
Ingredients
For the wrap:
- 1/2 cup lettuce, chopped
- 1/2 cup carrots, shredded
- 2 tablespoons bacon bits
- 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup cream cheese
- 1/4 cup mustard
- 2-3 slices of cheese (your choice)
- 2 tortillas
Instructions
-
Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture:
- In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese and minced garlic. Stir in enough mustard to achieve a creamy consistency and a nice color. The mixture should be easy to spread but not too runny.
-
Spread the Cream Cheese Mixture:
- Lay out the tortillas on a flat surface. Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the entire surface of each tortilla. It might be a bit lumpy, but thatโs perfectly fine.
-
Assemble the Wrap:
- Place a layer of chopped lettuce over the cream cheese mixture on each tortilla.
- Sprinkle shredded carrots over the lettuce.
- Add bacon bits and finely chopped onions on top of the carrots.
- Lay the slices of cheese over the vegetables.
-
Roll the Wraps:
- If using additional meat, lay it on top of the cheese, adjusting the amount based on your preference for a heavy or light filling.
- Carefully roll each tortilla tightly, starting from one edge and rolling towards the center. Tuck in the sides as you go to keep the filling secure.
-
Optional Wrapping:
- For added convenience, you can wrap the bottom of each wrap with foil. This helps to keep everything together and makes it easier to handle, especially if youโre on the go. Peel away the foil as you eat, working your way from the bottom up.
