Notes
Serving Tips:
- Serve the wraps immediately after pan-toasting for the best cheesy, crispy texture.
- Pair them with fresh sides like a green salad, coleslaw, or roasted veggies for a balanced meal.
- Offer dipping sauces such as ranch, garlic aioli, marinara, or spicy mayo for added flavor.
- Cut them in halves or thirds for party appetizers or lunchbox-friendly portions.
- For extra crunch, serve alongside chips, sweet potato fries, or pickles.
Storage Tips:
- Refrigeration: Store leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Freezing: Wrap uncooked (or cooked and cooled) wraps tightly in plastic wrap and foil, then freeze for up to 2 months.
- Reheating: Reheat in a skillet or air fryer to restore crispiness. Avoid microwaving if possible, as it can make the wraps soggy.
- Meal Prep: Assemble the wraps and refrigerate uncooked up to 24 hours in advance. Cook fresh when ready to serve.
- Avoid Overstuffing: If prepping ahead, don’t overfill the wraps—this keeps them from bursting or getting soggy during storage.
