Pin Recipe A creative and delicious way to transform your holiday leftovers into a crispy, satisfying wrap, inspired by the viral tortilla hack.
I love making these wraps because they save time and reduce food waste after the holidays.
Ingredients
- Leftovers: 1 cup cooked turkey, shredded or sliced, 1 cup stuffing (herb or sausage as preferred), 1/2 cup cranberry sauce, 1/2 cup gravy (optional, for dipping or drizzling)
- Dairy: 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella or Swiss cheese
- Wraps: 2 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
- For cooking: 2 teaspoons butter or olive oil
Instructions
- Step 1:
- Lay a tortilla flat on a cutting board. Using a knife, cut a single straight line from the center of the tortilla outwards to the edge (only one cut).
- Step 2:
- Visualize the tortilla as four quarters. On the first quarter, place half of the turkey. On the second quarter, evenly spread half of the stuffing. On the third quarter, add half of the cranberry sauce. On the fourth quarter, sprinkle half of the cheese.
- Step 3:
- Starting with the cut, fold the first quarter over the second, then the third, then the fourth, creating a layered, triangle-shaped wrap.
- Step 4:
- Repeat with the second tortilla and remaining ingredients.
- Step 5:
- Heat butter or olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Step 6:
- Serve warm, with gravy on the side for dipping if desired.

Recipe FAQs
- → How do I fold the tortilla to hold fillings securely?
After cutting one straight line from the center to the edge, place fillings in each quarter and fold sequentially from the cut edge to form a layered triangle that stays intact during cooking.
- → Can I substitute the cheese in this wrap?
Yes, mozzarella or Swiss works well, but cheddar or provolone can be used for different flavor profiles.
- → What cooking method ensures a crispy wrap?
Pan-frying the wrap seam-side down in butter or olive oil over medium heat for a few minutes per side crisps the tortilla and melts the cheese inside.
- → Is this wrap suitable for vegetarians?
By replacing turkey with plant-based roast and using vegetarian stuffing and gravy, you can easily adapt this wrap for a vegetarian diet.
- → How can I add extra nutrition to this wrap?
Including sautéed greens or leftover roasted vegetables adds flavor and boosts the nutritional value without altering the wrap's essence.
