Interchangeable Watermelon Wraps
Watermelon makes a surprisingly delicious addition to a savory wrap, and it provides several health benefits. Watermelon contains higher levels of lycopene than any other fresh fruit or vegetable and is a source of vitamins A, B6 and C, as well as potassium. To make your wrap, select from the options at the bottom of the page, gather your ingredients, and dig into the recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 tortilla
- 2–4 teaspoons spread
- 5–8 slices meat
- 1 watermelon spear, about ½-inch thick, 1-inch wide
- 2–4 teaspoons sauce
- 2–4 slices cheese
Directions
For any wrap, start with a spread (chive cream cheese, hummus, guacamole or Greek yogurt) to help the fillings stick together.
Place the rest of your ingredients in the center of a tortilla and put the watermelon spear on top.
Roll the tortilla over, tucking where needed. Fasten with a toothpick, if desired.
