The image shows four tortilla wraps cut in half and stacked on a wooden board with brown paper underneath. Each wrap has a soft, light beige outer tortilla layer holding fresh, green leafy lettuce and slices of pale green cucumber inside. The filling is creamy with a white sauce dotted with small green herbs, giving a fresh and moist look to the wraps. The background is blurry with a white marbled texture, and a bottle with a green liquid and a lemon half can be faintly seen. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 4 flour tortilla wraps
  • 2 seedless cucumbers (or traditional cucumbers if preferred)
  • Romaine lettuce
  • Grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 oz cream cheese, softened
  • Toothpicks
  • For the Green Goddess Dressing:
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil
  • 1 clove garlic, grated
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup diced scallions (light green and white parts)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Peel both cucumbers and slice each through the center lengthwise to create two long halves. Then, cut each half lengthwise 4-5 times to create cucumber sticks. This will yield enough sticks for 4 full wraps.
  2. Step 2: Combine all dressing ingredients—basil, garlic, parsley, lemon juice, salt, milk, Greek yogurt, and scallions—in a food processor or blender. Blend until completely smooth. Reserve any extra dressing for salads or other uses.
  3. Step 3: In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with about 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon of the green goddess dressing until smooth and well combined.
  4. Step 4: Lay one tortilla flat and spread the cream cheese and dressing mixture over the center, leaving the edges bare. Sprinkle approximately 1/2 tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese over the mixture, then add a handful of romaine lettuce on top.
  5. Step 5: Place one cucumber half, cut side up, over the romaine. Roll up the tortilla tightly and secure it with two toothpicks. Slice the wrap into two halves. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and cucumber halves.

Tips & Variations

  • Use seedless cucumbers for a smoother texture, but traditional cucumbers work well if peeled and seeds removed.
  • Add sliced avocado or smoked salmon inside the wraps for extra richness.
  • Try swapping out Parmesan for feta or goat cheese for a different flavor profile.
  • Leftover dressing can be stored in the fridge and served as a dip or salad dressing.

Storage

Store the prepared wraps wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day for best freshness. The extra green goddess dressing can be refrigerated in a sealed container for up to 5 days. Reheat is not recommended for the wraps, as they are best enjoyed fresh and chilled.

How to Serve

A creamy green sauce with a smooth texture is being poured from a glass bottle onto the exposed end of the wrap. The background has a white marbled texture with blurred elements, including a lemon half and more wraps. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Wraps

  • 4 flour tortilla wraps
  • 2 seedless cucumbers (peeled and sliced into sticks)
  • Romaine lettuce (handfuls for each wrap)
  • Grated Parmesan cheese (about 2 tablespoons total)
  • 2 oz cream cheese, softened
  • Toothpicks to secure wraps

Green Goddess Dressing

  • 1/2 cup fresh basil
  • 1 clove garlic, grated
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup diced scallions (including light green and white parts)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cucumbers: Peel both cucumbers and slice each completely lengthwise from end to end to create two long halves. Then, slice each half lengthwise 4-5 times to produce cucumber sticks. These will form the main filling for the wraps.
  2. Make the Green Goddess dressing: Combine all the dressing ingredients (basil, garlic, parsley, lemon juice, salt, milk, Greek yogurt, diced scallions) in a food processor or blender. Process until completely smooth. Reserve extra dressing for salads or other uses.
  3. Mix cream cheese and dressing: In a bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with about 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon of the green goddess dressing until smooth and well combined.
  4. Assemble the wraps: Lay one flour tortilla flat and spread a layer of the cream cheese-green goddess mixture towards the center, leaving edges bare. Sprinkle with about 1/2 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese, then top with a handful of romaine lettuce and one half of the sliced cucumber sticks. Roll up the tortilla tightly, secure with 2 toothpicks, and slice the wrap into two halves. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and cucumber halves until all are used.
  5. Serve and store: Serve immediately or store the wraps covered in the refrigerator. Leftover dressing can be kept refrigerated for a few days and used on salads.

Notes

  • Using seedless cucumbers gives a cleaner texture, but traditional cucumbers can also be used.
  • Make extra green goddess dressing for salads or dipping vegetables later in the week.
  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened for easy mixing with the dressing.
  • To make it easier to eat, secure the wraps well with toothpicks before slicing.
  • The wraps are best eaten fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
