Tortilla Warmer

Ingredients

2 large flour tortillas
½ tablespoon mayonnaise
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
4 dill pickle chips
2 romaine lettuce leaves
2 slices cheddar cheese
4 slices deli ham

Instructions

Warm the tortillas: Warm the tortillas using a tortilla warmer or by stacking the tortillas on a microwave safe plate, covered by a damp paper towel and microwave for 20 to 25 seconds.
Lay one tortilla flat on a plate or cutting board. Spread a thin layer of mayo onto the tortilla, followed by a thin layer of Dijon mustard, 2 slices of ham, 1 slice of cheddar cheese, 2 dill pickle chips, and 1 romaine lettuce leaf.
Roll the wrap up like a burrito. Repeat step number 2 with the remaining tortilla.

Notes

Recipe Variations And Substitutions:

There are so many ways to make ham and cheese wraps. Here are some of my other favorite variations:

Cheese - Swiss, Provolone, or American Cheese work great in this recipe
Mustard - Honey mustard, spicy mustard, or honey Dijon mustard can be used.
Lettuce - I prefer to use Romain lettuce, but Iceberg lettuce, arugula, or spinach can be used as an alternative.
Cream Cheese - Instead of using mayo, try using a thin layer of soften cream cheese.
Wraps - Swap out the wraps to fit your preference. Whole wheat, low carb, spinach, or tomato tortilla wraps make great options.
Honey - Add a touch of sweetness by drizzling on a little honey.
Add Bacon - Feeling extra hungry? Add cooked bacon slices or crumbles to this wrap.
Add Some Crunch - Add crushed potato chips, crushed tortilla chips, or Doritos to the wrap to add extra crunch.

Storage Instructions:

These wraps can be made ahead of time. Make sure to tightly wrap them in kitchen plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator up to 24 hours in advance.

Pro Tips:

Warm the tortillas before assembling the wraps. Warming the tortillas ensures that they easily fold without cracking. I love using this simple tortilla warmer .
Use good quality ham with minimal ingredients. I like using Black Forest Ham or Honey Ham freshly sliced from the deli counter at the grocery store or Kirkland Black Forest Ham from Costco.
The lettuce and pickles can sometimes hold water so pat them dry with a paper towel before adding them to your wrap if needed.
