Ingredients

• 500 grams Lean ground turkey
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, finely chopped
• 15 grams Fresh parsley, chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 4 pieces Whole grain flatbread
• 120 grams Greek yogurt
• 1 small Cucumber, diced
• 1 large Tomato, sliced
• 1 small Red onion, thinly sliced
• 0.5 medium Lemon, juiced
• 10 grams Fresh mint leaves

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, chopped red bell pepper, parsley, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 2

Divide the turkey mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a long, thin kebab, approximately the length of your flatbread.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the kebabs to the pan. Cook for 6-8 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the kebabs are browned on the outside.

Step 4

While the kebabs are cooking, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing Greek yogurt with lemon juice in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5

Warm the whole grain flatbreads by placing them on the pan for a minute or use a microwave to make them pliable and easier to wrap.

Step 6

Assemble the wraps by spreading a generous tablespoon of the yogurt sauce down the center of each flatbread. Place a cooked kebab on top, followed by cucumber, tomato slices, and red onions.

Step 7

Sprinkle fresh mint leaves over, then wrap the flatbread around the kebab and fillings, securing if necessary with a toothpick.

Step 8

Serve immediately while warm, with any extra yogurt sauce on the side for dipping.
