# Directions:

01 - In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth. Set aside.
02 - Warm tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave for 10-15 seconds to make them pliable.
03 - Lay each tortilla flat and spread 1-2 tablespoons of lemon aioli evenly over the surface.
04 - Distribute spinach, carrots, cucumber, bell pepper, cabbage, avocado, feta cheese if using, and fresh herbs evenly over each tortilla, leaving space at the edges for wrapping.

06 - Slice each wrap in half diagonally. Serve immediately or wrap tightly in parchment paper for transport.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • They travel beautifully and actually taste better after sitting in the fridge for a couple hours.
  • The lemon aioli is so addictive you'll find yourself making extra just to have on hand.
  • Zero cooking required means you can make these on your busiest days without breaking a sweat.
02 -
  • Pat all your vegetables completely dry before assembling or moisture will turn your wrap into a soggy mess within an hour.
  • Add the avocado as late as possible—literally right before eating if you made these ahead, because exposed avocado browns surprisingly fast even when wrapped tight.
03 -
  • Invest in a microplane zester for that lemon zest—it creates the finest, most flavorful pieces that distribute beautifully throughout the aioli.
  • The secret to wraps that don't fall apart is not overstuffing; leave enough empty space that when you roll it up the ingredients have room to compress without pushing out the sides.
