Notes

Feel free to customize the vegetables based on your preferences; any crunchy vegetable works well! For meal prep, store components separately and assemble wraps fresh. If you're managing diabetes, opt for a yogurt-based or vinegar-based sauce without added sugar. These wraps hold up well, making them great for lunches at work or picnics. Enjoy experimenting with different sauces and toppings to find your favorite combination!
