Cucumber Wraps Recipes

CUCUMBER WRAPS

Steps:

• Place a sheet of plastic wrap on the counter, the height of your cucumber (you may need to overlap pieces).
• Cut cucumber (1 large) in half lengthwise, then use a veggie peeler on the cut side to slice long strips of cucumber.
• Overlap your cucumber slices on the plastic wrap.
• Spread guacamole (1/2 cup) over the top of your cucumber slices.
• Layer deli sliced turkey (5 slices), swiss cheese (5 slices), and 1/2 cup arugula (1/2 cup) towards one end of the cucumber slices.
• Use the plastic wrap to roll the cucumber over the filling ingredients, forming the wraps tightly as you roll. Peel the plastic wrap back as you roll the cucumber over itself.
• Slice the wraps into 12 slices. Option to place a toothpick in the center of each roll, and enjoy!

CUCUMBER CREAM CHEESE WRAPS RECIPE

Steps:

• Chop dill and green onion finely. Mix with the softened cream cheese, salt, and pepper to taste. Set aside.
• Peel the cucumbers. Cut into very thin slices (Note). Pat the pieces a bit dry with kitchen paper (especially if using an English cucumber).
• Spread cream cheese on the tortillas. Cover with cucumbers, overlapping them a little to make them fit.
• Roll up tightly. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to allow the cheese to set slightly.
• Remove the plastic wrap. Use as many toothpicks or wooden picks as needed to secure the roll-ups; it depends on the desired thickness of the pieces. I cut 7 pieces out of each tortilla, so I had 21 in the end. Use a serrated knife to slice the roll between the picks.
• Arrange on a platter and garnish with a few fresh dill sprigs (optional).

CAJUN SHRIMP & CUCUMBER WRAPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk lemon juice, 3 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning and pepper. Set aside. Toss shrimp with remaining Cajun seasoning. In a large skillet, heat remaining oil over medium-high heat. Add shrimp mixture; cook and stir until shrimp turn pink., Place lettuce on flatbread wraps; top with cucumbers, onion, parsley and shrimp. Drizzle with dressing; roll up and, if desired, secure with toothpicks.

LAMB AND CUCUMBER WRAPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine yogurt, olives, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper.
• Thinly spread some of the yogurt mixture over the lavash; then layer half of each lavash with lamb, cucumber, and red onion slices. Spoon remaining yogurt sauce over filling; fold each lavash to enclose.
