Pin this A creative and delicious way to transform your holiday leftovers into a crispy, satisfying wrap, inspired by the viral tortilla hack.
I first served this wrap using leftover turkey and it quickly became a family favorite for quick lunches and simple dinners.
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.

Notes
Swap mozzarella for cheddar or provolone if preferred. Add sautéed greens or leftover roasted vegetables for extra flavor and nutrition. Make it vegetarian by substituting turkey with plant based roast and using vegetarian stuffing and gravy. Excellent with a side salad or sweet potato fries.
