The fresh flavors and ingredients of Greek cuisine are ideal for filling a tortilla and making it into a vegetarian sandwich wrap. Feta cheese and kalamata olives, paired with tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, and yellow squash, make for a tasty lunch or snack. The mixture of balsamic vinegar, fresh parsley, garlic, and olive oil season the vegetables and add a tangy dressing that is the perfect foil for the salty cheese and olives.

The recipe calls for whole-wheat tortillas, but if you prefer white or another type of wrap feel free to swap out. You can also add other vegetables and herbs, as well as grilled chicken if you don't need the sandwich to be vegetarian.

  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

For the Wrap:

  • 16 cherry tomatoes, more or less, sliced in half

  • 10 Kalamata olives, sliced

Wrap Folding Tips

  • Make sure to use a large tortilla—probably bigger than you think you need. In order for the wrap to be nice and neat, you need a large surface area.
  • Do not place too much filling in each tortilla or the wrap won't fold properly, the filling will escape, or the tortilla will tear.
  • If you would like one end of the wrap to be open, only fold one side over the filling. Then bring the bottom of the wrap up over the salad and begin rolling.
