Decisions.… decisions.… can 5 seconds make a difference?

Greek Turkey Wraps
This is absolutely one of my favorite “go to” recipes. It is so simple and the combination of flavors appeals to everyone. I am using this “filling” in tortillas here, but you can stuff peppers, tomatoes or just eat as is….hot or cold!
