Healthy Turkey and Quinoa Tortilla Wraps
Turkey Quinoa Tortilla Wraps! One of my favorite meal prep meals. It’s fast, easy, and above all tasty!
This Turkey Quinoa Tortilla Wrap recipe is packed with protein and will keep you satisfied until your next meal. First, I pre-cooked the turkey and seasoned it with lots of spices and sweet peppers.
Next, I used my rice cooker to cook the quinoa. Using a rice cooker makes it simple and quick. Cooking quinoa in a rice cooker is always a 1:2 ratio for a perfect pot of quinoa. For example, 1 cup of quinoa needs 2 cups of water. You will never cook a bad batch of quinoa using this ratio.
Then, for my veggies, I used a pre-washed organic spring mix, cherry tomatoes, and more sweet peppers, which can all be found at your local grocery store. I was excited to find low carb tortilla wraps to make these turkey wraps even healthier. They are whole wheat, low carb, and above all they taste great.
And Last, I found this great Classic Ranch yogurt dressing by Bolthouse Farms. It is only 45 calories and has 84% less fat that other ranch dressings. Now, I know what your thinking. Ranch dressing made of yogurt? What does it taste like? Well, I thought it taste really good. I was very surprised and it was a good fit with this turkey wrap.
You can fill your wrap with other options like beans, corn, oil & vinegar, salsa or whatever your heart desires. Just follow these simple steps and you’re on your way to a simple, quick, and healthy meal that your family will enjoy.
****if you use can beans, corn, etc. put them in a strainer and rinse them off before eating.
