Turkey, Pesto and Sun-Dried Tomato Wrap
Packing lunches to take to work takes a lot of planning! When I’m getting ready in the morning before my hour-long commute, the last thing that I want to think about is “what should I fix and pack for lunch?”
Total chaos and frustration for me to think about one more thing in the morning!
And I am NOT a morning person!
Wraps are so easy to make with so many ingredient options and even easier to grab and go when made the night before. This Turkey, Pesto and Sun-Dried Tomato Wrap is one of my favorites. Here’s a link on making home-made basil pesto.
So pretty to look at. Lots of layers of flavor. And EASY!
I like to slice wraps on the diagonal to show more of the colorful ingredients in the layers.
I’ve made this Turkey, Pesto and Sun-Dried Tomato Wrap and I hope you enjoy it! As always, change out the ingredients to make something that you prefer more: chicken, refried beans, black beans, avocados, different varieties of cheeses, lettuce, etc.

Wow, does that ever look tasty. I am a morning person, so I am pretty frisky when getting ready for my day. It’s later on that I fade. This seems like the perfect thing for me to make for lunch. I bet it would prevent my afternoon coma! Thanks!
I’d love to be a morning person Adri, but raised in a family with an Italian dinner (only) ristorante, and simply adjusted to late nights until 2 AM!

I’m not a morning person, too and I wouldn’t be able to prepare anything when I wake up early in the morning. Only the breakfast in the weekend… but in that case I don’t wake up so early… š
I think your idea is a perfect street or office food.
Have a nice week!!
Grazie mille Ilaria! You are so kind! I would love to eat like Italians in the morning — a simple espresso with delicious sweet pastry! So much lighter!
Baci,
Roz

These look so good, Roz! I love every ingredient in them. I would never have thought of putting pesto and sun-dried tomatoes together, but it sounds wonderful. Do you mind if I ask, where in the grocery store you find sun-dried tomatoes in a bag? I have only seen them in jars packed in oil. Thank you for the great recipe. I hope to make them soon!
HI Shari, Thanks for your compliment! I found the dry sun-dried tomatoes in a bag similar to what raisins and drired cranberries come in. I think I picked these up at WalMart in the produce section. But I like using dry sun-dried tomatoes because they give a nice chewy bite to things and aren’t so ‘slimey’. I hope that you can find them! Let me know.

I’m a morning person, but lunches always drove me crazy when I worked. Your turkey wraps are perfect and I will be making this soon since we are eating a lot of turkey now!
I just visited your blog Pam, and am saving your recipe for the turkey burgers too! I now only eat turkey sausage in the morning and in all of my sandwiches and wraps. I can’t wait to try your burgers!
Roz
I hear ya Roz, it does take some planning ahead when making food to bring to work. I love your turkey wrap with pesto – so healthy too. Who doesn’t like pesto ? right ? Thanks for adding more links for sandwiches and wraps, I definitely need more ideas when it comes to making lunch for my husband these days.
Thanks you two Charleston gals!

I would love to win the lottery and not have to work too Larry! Enjoy your retirement!

Smoked turkey and pesto. That sounds good! Wish I had some sun-dried tomatoes, I’d be making this tomorrow!
The sun-dried tomatoes really do add a lovely flavor twist to this! Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks Sarah, they have a great flavor combination that almost everyone would enjoy! Thanks for your kindness!

I also would make and pack my lunches the night before. I would do anything I could to make it so I could sleep to the very last second. Now I don’t have to worry about that. I can make my lunch at home. Your wrap will be on my rotation. I love pesto and turkey. It’s a fantastic combo.
You’re so right Renee! Every second of extra zzzzz’s in the morning just makes my day! Thanks for stopping by!
