These easy 5-ingredient turkey cheese roll-ups are a quick, satisfying snack perfect for any occasion. Made with simple ingredients, they come together in under 10 minutes and are a crowd-pleaser for kids and adults alike.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces sliced turkey breast (thinly sliced deli turkey)
  • 4 slices cheese (cheddar, Swiss, provolone, or mozzarella)
  • 4 small flour tortillas (6-inch)
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise or mustard (Dijon mustard recommended)
  • A handful fresh spinach leaves (about 20 grams, optional)

Instructions

  1. Lay out the four small tortillas flat on a cutting board or clean surface. If tortillas are not soft, warm them briefly in the microwave for 10-15 seconds.
  2. Spread about 1/2 tablespoon of mayonnaise or mustard evenly over each tortilla using a spreading knife.
  3. Lay 2 ounces of sliced turkey evenly over each tortilla, keeping slices flat to avoid bulky roll-ups.
  4. Place one slice of cheese on top of the turkey in each tortilla. Cut cheese slices in half if needed to fit.
  5. Top with a small handful of fresh spinach leaves (optional).
  6. Roll each tortilla tightly but gently from one edge to form a snug roll.
  7. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice each roll into 3 equal pieces to show layers of turkey, cheese, and spinach.
  8. Arrange the roll-ups on a serving plate and serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.

Notes

Warm tortillas slightly if they crack while rolling. Use a damp paper towel in the microwave to soften. Do not overload fillings to avoid tearing. Use a sharp knife for clean slicing. Can be prepared up to 24 hours ahead but best fresh to avoid soggy tortillas. For gluten-free, use gluten-free tortillas or large lettuce leaves. For dairy-free, use dairy-free cheese and mayo alternatives.
