At the food and wine show we visited on Sunday we saw a stall which claimed to have wraps that didn’t split when rolled. I was intrigued because every kind of wrap I had ever used split if even slightly mishandled, sometimes even when treated with kid gloves. They demonstrated in front of us and showed a myriad of innovative ways to use a wrap and there was not a tear in sight. If we bought three packs – all different flavours – we got an instruction manual full of beautiful pictures to go with them, so buy them we did. Tonight I used the spinach wraps and pulled out everything I could find from the fridge. They all contained either salami, pastrami or pork – Dario buys sliced meats for lunches but never finishes any of them. They all also contained tomatoes, salad, feta or mozzarella, avocado, bean sprouts and a choice of chutney, pesto or mayonnaise. As you can see, our fridge was full of bits and pieces. Now it is much clearer and our tummies are full of all sorts of goodness. Oh, and the wraps didn’t split, not even a little bit.
For the New Zealand contingency, these are Farrah Wraps – well worth tracking down if you want to wrap your food up.
Those are beautiful looking wraps and so colourful. Love the fillings and yes, they haven’t split – I have the same trouble with wraps xx
Maybe they will start exporting overseas because they are brilliant.

I love wraps, those look delicious!
We have two more packs of them in different flavours so you will be seeing more of these done in different ways as per their booklet.

When in a hurry, these make such a fantastic and filling meal! When I cook meat, of whatever kind, I always make extra and use such up for pasta sauces, iomelettes etc or just such wraps – don’t buy deli meats at all if i can help it, because of the salt, fat and chemical levels. Use about 4-5 firms’ socalled mountain bread, tortillas etc and have never experienced cracking – BUT, I have an automatic habit of poking such in the toaster for just 10-12 seconds [warm not hot] and I think that makes them more pliable?!
I agree about the deli meats and wish he would stop buying them. You can taste the salt in them. I have a problem of having leftovers from dinners. It can happen but more often than not Adriano eats the lot to keep his calorie intake up so he doesn’t lose weight with his sport. I do sometimes remember to sneak away some into the back of the fridge if I want something left for my lunch at work the next day. I will have to get more cunning.

Nope, just cook a tad more 🙂 ! Nothing like homecooked rare roast beef or half a lamb shank ‘left over’ or that Asian grilled chicken thigh or even [shush!] those pieces of pork curry one takes ten seconds to slice up 🙂 ! You should be happy your husband is putting the ‘good stuff’ into his mouth 😀 ! Have had huge fun when ‘storing’ some cooked chicken pieces with that tad of left over Chinese marinade over them! Well, that gels, doesn’t it! So, have put some of the gel on wraps, sandwiches etc: talk about moreish!! love. . . Eha
I can imagine that gel would be super tasty because all the flavours would be concentrated in it. Adriano and Dario (mostly) do have a good diet because I make sure of it. I’m not big on all those additives they stick in food so I try to get back to basics but time sometimes defeats me.

🙂 !
This is nice – I think I have all this in my fridge. As soon as I go home from vacation, I can make this if I buy wraps. Thanks for sharing great recipes!
Enjoy your vacation. This will be an easy meal to make when you get back.

Are farrah’s wraps fodmap friendly? 🙂
This is a very old article before I discovered the low Fodmap diet but it is possible that they now have a low Fodmap option. You could contact them and ask.
