Lentil, Apple, and Turkey Wrap

This vibrant lentil, apple, and turkey wrap offers a refreshing twist on a high-protein lunch, combining savoury poultry with the crisp sweetness of seasonal fruit. By using a blend of brown and green lentils, you create a satisfying, fibre-rich base that holds its texture beautifully against the crunch of fresh celery and carrot. It is a colourful, balanced meal that feels light yet provides sustained energy throughout the afternoon.

Perfect for meal prep or a nutritious family dner, these wraps are easily customisable using either wholemeal lavash or soft flour tortillas. The addition of fresh lemon juice and extra-virgin olive oil brings a bright acidity that lifts the earthy flavours of the pulses. High in protein and packed with vitamins, this homemade dish is a clever way to liven up your weekday routine with wholesome, natural ingredients.

Ingredients for Lentil, Apple, and Turkey Wrap

  • 950ml low-sodium vegetable or chicken stock

  • 50g dried French green lentils

  • 2 stalks celery, chopped

  • 1 large carrot, peeled and chopped

  • 1 sprig fresh thyme

  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1 medium tomato, cored, seeded, and diced

  • 1 small Fuji apple, cored and diced

  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

How to make Lentil, Apple, and Turkey Wrap

  1. Place the stock, lentils, celery, carrot, thyme, and salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until the lentils are tender, about 30 minutes, depending on the lentils. (If they begin to dry out, add water as needed.) Remove and discard the thyme. Drain and transfer the mixture to a bowl; let cool.

  2. Fold in the tomato, apple, lemon juice, and olive oil. Season with the pepper.

  3. To assemble a wrap, place 1 lavash sheet on a clean work surface. Spread some of the lentil mixture on the end nearest you, leaving a 1-inch border. Top with several slices of turkey, then some of the lettuce. Roll up the lavash, slice crosswise, and serve. If using tortillas, spread the lentils in the centre, top with the turkey and lettuce, and fold up the bottom, left side, and right side before rolling away from you.
