Salad Ingredients
- 2 cups mixed greens
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cucumber, diced
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup olives, sliced
Wrap and Dressing
- 4 large lettuce leaves or tortillas
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare Vegetables: Wash all vegetables thoroughly and prepare each ingredient by halving the cherry tomatoes, dicing the cucumber and bell pepper, slicing the avocado, and shredding the carrots.
- Combine Salad Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, avocado, shredded carrots, crumbled feta cheese, and sliced olives to create a colorful salad base.
- Make Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined to form a light and tangy dressing.
- Toss Salad with Dressing: Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently to evenly coat all ingredients without bruising the delicate greens and avocado.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay out the large lettuce leaves or tortillas and spoon an equal portion of the dressed salad mixture onto each wrap.
- Wrap and Serve: Fold the lettuce leaves or tortillas tightly around the salad filling and serve immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors and crisp textures at their best.
Notes
- Use large, sturdy lettuce leaves such as romaine or butter lettuce for easier wrapping if avoiding tortillas.
- Add grilled chicken or chickpeas for extra protein if desired.
- For a vegan option, omit feta cheese or substitute with a plant-based cheese alternative.
- Serve wraps immediately to prevent the lettuce or tortillas from becoming soggy.
- Variations can include adding nuts or seeds for crunchy texture.
