Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Wraps:
    • 4 large tortilla wraps (whole wheat, spinach, or low-carb options work great)
    • 8 oz thinly sliced roasted turkey breast (nitrate-free recommended)
    • 4 slices cooked turkey bacon (can substitute regular bacon)
    • 1 ripe avocado, sliced
    • 1 large tomato, thinly sliced
    • 1 cup fresh lettuce (romaine or butter lettuce work well)
    • 4 slices of cheese (pepper jack, Swiss, or cheddar)
    • ¼ red onion, thinly sliced (optional)
    • ¼ cup sprouts (alfalfa or broccoli sprouts add great texture)
  • For the Spread:
    • ¼ cup Greek yogurt (or light mayo)
    • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    • 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
    • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
    • Salt and black pepper to taste
    • 1 tablespoon fresh herbs (chives, dill, or parsley work wonderfully)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Spread

  1. In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt (or mayo), Dijon mustard, honey (if using), garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Mix well until smooth and add chopped fresh herbs.
  3. Set aside while you prepare the other ingredients.

Step 2: Prepare Your Vegetables

  1. Wash and dry all produce thoroughly.
  2. Slice the tomato into thin rounds.
  3. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice into thin pieces.
  4. Tear or chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces.
  5. Thinly slice the red onion if using.

Step 3: Assemble Your Wraps

  1. Lay each tortilla wrap flat on a clean surface.
  2. Spread 1-2 tablespoons of the prepared spread evenly over each wrap, leaving about ½ inch around the edges.
  3. Layer the turkey slices evenly across the center of each wrap.
  4. Add a slice of cheese on top of the turkey.
  5. Arrange the turkey bacon, tomato slices, avocado, lettuce, onion (if using), and sprouts.

Step 4: Roll and Secure

  1. Fold in the sides of the tortilla wrap.
  2. Starting from the bottom, tightly roll the wrap upward, keeping the ingredients contained.
  3. If needed, secure with toothpicks or wrap tightly in parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  4. If not eating immediately, wrap tightly in plastic wrap to keep fresh.

Step 5: Slice and Serve

  1. Using a sharp knife, cut each wrap in half diagonally for easier eating.
  2. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.

Notes

Pro Tips for Making the Best California Turkey Club Wraps:

  • Warm your tortillas slightly before assembling to make them more pliable and prevent cracking.
  • Pat dry all vegetables thoroughly to prevent soggy wraps, especially if making ahead.
  • Layer strategically – place juicy ingredients like tomatoes between drier ingredients like turkey and cheese to prevent the wrap from getting soggy.
  • Don’t overstuff your wraps – it might be tempting, but this makes them difficult to roll and eat.
  • For meal prep success, assemble wraps without the avocado and add it just before eating to prevent browning.
  • Toast your wrap briefly in a panini press or dry skillet for added crunch and to seal it closed.
  • The spread can be made up to 3 days ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Storage Instructions:

  • Wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or stored in an airtight container, these wraps will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • For meal prep, store all components separately and assemble just before eating for the freshest results.
  • Not recommended for freezing due to the fresh vegetables and avocado.
