Ingredients
  

4 large whole wheat tortillas

8 ounces deli turkey breast, thinly sliced

1 large apple (such as Fuji or Honeycrisp), cored and thinly sliced

4 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

1 cup fresh spinach leaves, washed and dried

½ cup shredded carrots

Salt and black pepper to taste

Optional: ¼ cup chopped walnuts or pecans for an added crunch

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cream Cheese Spread: In a small mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, honey, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Use a fork or whisk to mix the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.

    Lay Out the Tortillas: On a clean, dry surface, place one tortilla flat. Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture (about 2-3 tablespoons) evenly over the entire surface of the tortilla, leaving about half an inch from the edges.

      Layer the Fillings: On top of the cream cheese layer, evenly distribute slices of turkey breast, making sure to cover the tortilla. Layer fresh spinach leaves next, followed by the apple slices, shredded carrots, and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper. If desired, add a sprinkle of chopped walnuts or pecans for extra texture and crunch.

        Roll the Wrap: Starting at one end, carefully roll the tortilla tightly. Tuck in the fillings as you roll to ensure everything stays secure inside. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and fillings.

          Slice and Serve: After rolling all the wraps, use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 1 to 2-inch thick pinwheels. Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter, showcasing the vibrant layers. Serve immediately for the best flavor and freshness. If preparing in advance, wrap each rolled pinwheel tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
