Yogurt-Berry Wrap
Give a cup of Greek yogurt a boost by transforming it into a pita wrap recipe. This recipe idea is easy to customize—you can start with plain Greek yogurt and build a delicious meal from there, or use your favorite flavored yogurt and add complementary toppings. Finish this pita bread wrap with strawberry slices, toasted walnuts, and a drizzle of honey.
Avocado-Turkey Wrap
Turn a simple sandwich into a hearty pita wrap with traditional lunchtime fixings. Start with a whole wheat pita, then make it a Mediterranean-inspired meal with mashed avocado, sliced turkey, crumbled feta cheese, and halved Kalamata olives. If you're craving a chicken pita wrap, it's an easy swap–use sliced or leftover chicken instead of (or alongside) the turkey.
Salmon Wrap
Take inspiration from bagels and lox, then give the breakfast classic a lunchtime twist by serving it as a Greek pita wrap. Creamy, sliced goat cheese adds plenty of richness, while purchased pesto, smoked salmon, and sliced cucumbers help turn a plain pita into a mouthwatering meal. This pita wrap idea has no ingredients that need to be cooked, so if you keep the toppers stocked in your fridge, you can whip it up in just a few moments.
Zucchini-Tomato Wrap
Treat yourself to a truly Mediterranean-inspired lunch with this veggie-filled pita wrap. Spread on soft goat cheese, then add sautéed zucchini slices, halved cherry tomatoes, a sprinkle of black pepper, and a quick drizzle of olive oil. It makes a delicious vegetarian meal, but if you want to add extra protein, consider topping it with crispy tofu or leftover sliced chicken.

Hummus-Egg Wrap
Hummus is a Mediterranean favorite, but it can be a lot more than just a tasty dip. Spread protein-packed hummus across the pita, then add roasted red peppers, arugula, and a fried egg. To make this pita wrap recipe a little quicker: Instead of cooking a fried egg, you could make hard-cooked eggs in advance, then add them to your wrap when you're ready to eat.

Peanut Butter-Banana Wrap
This flavorful pita wrap recipe isn't your average peanut butter sandwich (it's better!). Top your pita bread with a mix of ricotta cheese and peanut butter (or substitute sun butter), then layer on banana slices and raisins.
