Ingredients
  

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 cup baby spinach leaves, washed and dried

1 cup mixed salad greens (a blend of arugula, romaine, and kale)

1 cup cooked quinoa, cooled

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup walnuts, toasted and roughly chopped

1/4 cup balsamic vinaigrette (store-bought or homemade)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Quinoa: Rinse the quinoa under cold water, then cook it according to the package instructions (typically simmering in water for about 15 minutes). Once cooked, fluff with a fork and let it cool to room temperature.

    Assemble the Base: Lay each tortilla flat on a clean, dry surface. Start by placing a handful of baby spinach leaves in the center of each tortilla. Follow this by layering a generous amount of mixed salad greens.

      Incorporate Protein and Veggies: Spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the cooled quinoa onto each tortilla. Evenly distribute the halved cherry tomatoes and avocado slices over the greens for a burst of color and taste.

        Add Cheese and Nuts: Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the top of the veggies, then add a handful of toasted walnuts to provide a delightful crunch and richness.

          Dress the Wraps: Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinaigrette over the filling in each wrap. Season with salt and pepper to your preference to enhance the flavors.

            Wrap It Up: Carefully fold the sides of the tortilla inward over the filling, then start rolling from the bottom up to secure all the ingredients tightly inside. Make sure the fillings are well contained.

              Slice and Serve: After wrapping, slice each wrap in half at a diagonal angle for easier handling. For added flair, serve with additional balsamic vinaigrette on the side for dipping.

                Enjoy: These delicious wraps can be enjoyed immediately or can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator for a refreshing meal on the go!
