Tips & Variations
Add Protein – Include grilled chicken, shrimp, falafel, or chickpeas for a heartier wrap.
Cheese Alternatives – Swap feta for goat cheese, halloumi, or vegan cheese if preferred.
Spice it Up – Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of harissa for some heat.
Extra Veggies – Include shredded carrots, zucchini ribbons, or avocado for more color and texture.
Wrap Variations – Use whole wheat wraps, lavash, or lettuce leaves for a lighter, low-carb option.
Make it a Bowl – Skip the pita and serve all ingredients over quinoa, couscous, or rice for a Mediterranean bowl.
Herb Boost – Add fresh parsley, oregano, or mint to the veggies for extra Mediterranean flavor.
Meal Prep Friendly – Keep tzatziki and veggies separate from the pita until ready to assemble to prevent soggy bread.
Roasted Flavor – Roast the vegetables before assembling for a deeper, richer flavor.
Q&A
Q: Can I make these wraps ahead of time?
