Assemble the Wrap

- Arrange the turkey slices evenly over the tortillas.
- Add the sliced avocado, followed by the tomato slices, red onion, and baby spinach.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese on top and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Roll the Wraps:
- Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll them tightly into wraps. Secure with toothpicks if needed to hold their shape.
Serve
- Slice and Plate:
- Cut the wraps in half diagonally for easier eating. Serve immediately, or wrap them tightly in foil or parchment paper for on-the-go lunches.
