WRAPS SWEET AND SPICY
I made these as an Appetizers but you can leave them whole as a wrap for lunch. They are filled with a couple of different things as you can see in the uploaded pictures giving you a variety of appetizers. Now this is a recipe that you can play with. Try leftover roast beef or turkey breast, sprouts, shredded carrot, cucumber slices.... You can use any spreads of choice like garlic herbed butter, Mustard...Then watch everyone try one then go for on other trying to figure out what's inside each one. These are great for a picnic or to take to school or work just wrap the rolled wrap whole in plastic wrap.

Steps:
- Mix together the mayonnaise, cucumber, 1 tablespoon of honey, 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, and black pepper in a bowl until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet on medium-high heat, and cook and stir the chicken breast strips until they are beginning to turn golden and are no longer pink in the middle, about 8 minutes. Stir in the salsa, 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have blended, about 5 minutes.
- Stack the tortillas, 4 at a time, in a microwave oven and heat until warm and pliable, 20 to 30 seconds per batch.
- Spread each tortilla with 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise-cucumber mixture, top with a layer of baby spinach leaves, and arrange about 1/2 cup of chicken mixture on the spinach leaves.
- Fold the bottom of each tortilla up about 2 inches, and start rolling the burrito from the right side. When the burrito is half-rolled, fold the top of the tortilla down, enclosing the filling, and continue rolling to make a tight, compact cylinder.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Tortilla: Select a tortilla that is large enough to hold all of your fillings without breaking. Corn tortillas are a good option for tacos and burritos, while flour tortillas are better for wraps and quesadillas.
- Layer Your Fillings Wisely: Start with a layer of spreadable ingredients, such as hummus or guacamole, to help hold the other fillings in place. Then, add your protein, vegetables, and cheese. Finally, top with a drizzle of sauce.
- Don't Overstuff Your Wrap: Too many fillings can make your wrap difficult to eat and may cause it to fall apart. Be mindful of the amount of ingredients you are adding.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your wrap will taste. Try to use seasonal produce and high-quality proteins.
- Experiment with Different Flavors: Don't be afraid to mix and match different flavors and ingredients. There are endless possibilities when it comes to creating delicious wraps.
Conclusion:
Wraps are a versatile and delicious meal option that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to fit your dietary needs and preferences.
