Spinach wrap from scratch:
6 ounces spinach leaves
3/4 cup milk you can use nut milk to make this vegan
3 1/2 cups flour all-purpose, whole wheat, or a mixture
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup vegetable
oil or coconut oil, melted
Directions:
Warm milk to 110F. Should be almost too hot to the touch.
Add milk and spinach to a blender.
Pulse until completely combined.
In a bowl, mix flour, salt, baking powder.
Add spinach and milk mixture to flour. Add oil too.
Mix everything with a spoon. Knead dough for a few minutes, until smooth and not sticky.
Add more flour if necessary, if dough is sticking too much.
There were times I had to add up to 1/2 cup of flour extra because the dough was sticking so much.
Once dough is smooth, shape it into a ball, place back in bowl. Let it rest for about 20 minutes, covered.
Divide dough into equal pieces. I divide mine into 40 g pieces, and usually obtain from 16-20 tortillas.
Roll each piece of dough into a ball. The best way to do this is the following: make a cup shape with your hand and apply pressure on the dough while doing circular motions against the counter. You will form perfect rounds this way.
Place balls in a floured baking sheet or floured counter. Press lightly on top of each piece to make it a tad flat. Cover with a towel and let dough pieces rest for 20 minutes.
Heat a cast iron pan. Roll tortillas out into a 9 inch circle. Add tortilla to hot skillet one by one and cook for about one minute on the first side and 30 seconds on the other side. Don't stack tortillas after you cook them, or the ones on the bottom will get soggy.
Turkey meatballs are not only delicious but also packed with protein, making them an excellent choice for a healthy meal. To enhance the flavor, consider incorporating different herbs and spices such as oregano, basil, or red pepper flakes into your meat mixture. For an added crunch, you could introduce some diced vegetables to the meatballs, such as zucchini or grated carrots. If you're looking to make this dish vegetarian-friendly, substitute turkey with lentils or chickpeas. The accompanying spinach wrap is a versatile option that can also be adapted. By substituting some of the all-purpose flour with almond or coconut flour, you can create a gluten-free version. Adding seeds like chia or flaxseed not only provides a nutritional boost but also improves the texture of the wrap. Immersing your wraps in marinara sauce just before serving can take the flavor profile to another level. Finally, turkey meatball wraps are not just quick to prepare, but they also make great meal prep options. You can assemble them ahead of time and store them in the fridge for quick access during a busy week. Consider pairing your wraps with a side salad or some roasted vegetables for a well-rounded meal.
