This is an easy and delicious quinoa wrap. I had a little left over quinoa from yesterday’s quinoa and lentil salad so I made this wrap for lunch today. It’s easy, tasty and fast to put together – just what you need when you have to whip something up in the morning to bring to work for lunch.
A couple of notes:
I lined the tortilla with spinach leaves before I added the quinoa and other ingredients. This kept the tortilla from becoming soggy in any way.
Quinoa is so versatile, it’s good to have some on hand cooked and ready to eat. Either cook up a batch at the beginning of the week and keep it in the refrigerator so you have it ready to add to salads or wraps. Or, if you make a quinoa salad, cook a little extra so you can use it another way the next day.
Next time I’ll add some sunflower seeds for a little crunch – if you have them handy, add them in.
Try a spinach tortilla or lavash bread – either one would work really well with this recipe.
