Ingredients
  

Wrap Base
  • 4 leaves Romaine Leaves Crisp and vibrant leaves large enough to hold fillings.
Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mayo Preferably Hellmann's; can substitute with any brand or dairy-free alternative.
  • 1 teaspoon Sriracha Adjust heat level to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Honey Dijon Mustard Adds a sweet tanginess.
Fillings
  • 4 slices turkey breast Deli turkey or rotisserie chicken; can use plant-based substitute.
  • 1 slice Havarti cheese Can substitute with sharp cheddar or vegan cheese.
  • 3 slices pickles Dill pickles recommended for crunch.
  • to taste Pickled red onions Optional but recommended for added zing.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Lay out a large piece of parchment paper onto a cutting board.
  2. In the center of the parchment paper, layer the Romaine leaves, slightly overlapping them with stems facing you.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the mayo and Sriracha, then spread a bit of the mixture onto each lettuce leaf, adding Honey Dijon Mustard.
  4. Layer on the turkey slices, followed by cheese, pickles, and pickled onions.
  5. Rotate the parchment paper 90 degrees, gently roll the lettuce to form a tight wrap, and seal the ends like a candy wrapper.
  6. Slice the wrap in half with a sharp knife and enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Ensure mayo is at room temperature for easier spreading. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days, and prepare sauces separately to avoid sogginess.
