Ingredients

1 1/2 cups finely shredded green cabbage

1/2 cup finely shredded red cabbage

1 medium apple, julienned

1/3 cup dried cranberries

1 medium carrot, grated

2 green onions, thinly sliced

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (nonfat or 2%)

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon poppy seeds (optional)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

4 large whole wheat tortillas

8 ounces sliced cooked turkey breast

1 cup baby spinach leaves

Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, combine the green cabbage, red cabbage, julienned apple, dried cranberries, grated carrot, and thinly sliced green onions. Toss gently to mix.

Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, poppy seeds (if using), salt, and black pepper until smooth.

Step 3: Pour the dressing over the slaw mixture and toss well to coat. Let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 4: Lay the whole wheat tortillas flat. Place about 1/4 cup of baby spinach leaves in the center of each.

Step 5: Top the spinach with 2 ounces of sliced turkey breast per tortilla.

Step 6: Spoon a generous amount of the cranberry apple slaw over the turkey on each tortilla.

Step 7: Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly to enclose the filling.

Step 8: Slice the wraps in half and serve immediately, or wrap in parchment paper for an easy portable meal.

Tips & Variations

For extra crunch, add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans to the slaw mix.

If you prefer a sweeter twist, substitute honey with maple syrup.

Use spinach or kale depending on your preference for greens.

Try using turkey breast slices with herbs or smoked turkey for added flavor.

To make it vegetarian, swap the turkey for grilled tofu or a plant-based deli slice.

Storage

Store any leftover slaw and turkey separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Assemble the wraps just before serving to avoid sogginess. If wrapped, keep the wraps well wrapped in parchment or foil and enjoy within a day. Reheat the turkey if desired, but it’s best served cold or at room temperature for the freshest taste.

FAQs

Can I use a different type of cabbage?

Yes, you can use only green or only red cabbage if that’s what you have on hand. Each variety adds a slightly different flavor and color to the slaw.

Is Greek yogurt necessary for the dressing?

Greek yogurt provides creaminess and protein, but you can substitute it with regular yogurt or mayonnaise if preferred. Just adjust seasoning to taste.
