As the temperature outside goes up, it’s natural to want food that is satisfying, but not heavy. A good summer salad or wrap makes for easy lunches or dinners and this is a definite win to add to the list. The great thing about wraps is they can be customized just about any way.
Sauces
For this recipe, I made a version of tzatziki sauce, and paired it with harissa. I chose this pairing for the added nutrients that yogurt and garlic provides, plus the dads and more vegetables like cucumber. This could also be easily paired with Ranch, or any other sauce of choice.
Protein
I chose to make turkey meatballs for this recipe, however,. you can, of substitute, beef lamb , or even seafood like shrimp. You can also use while season, chicken breasts and preferred.
