Lettuce and Turkey Wraps: w/ Roasted Red Pepper Cream Cheese, Raspberry Cream Cheese ─ EatNowCryLater

Hi, everyone! Check out this easy and delicious lettuce and turkey wrap video! Kids looove the raspberry and cream cheese version (great for school lunches!), but I decided to come up with a yummy adult version using roasted red peppers. These can be made ahead and are great for parties and potlucks--easy to make and stress-free! :)

INGREDIENTS:

Large flour tortillas

Cheese slices

Roasted Turkey Deli Meat

Shredded Lettuce

Cheese cloth


FOR THE RASPBERRY CREAM CHEESE:

1/4 cup of good quality raspberry preserves

1 block (8 ounces) of softened cream cheese


FOR THE ROASTED RED PEPPER CREAM CHEESE:

1 Red bell pepper

1 block (8 ounces) of softened cream cheese

1 Tablespoon of Sriracha

Honey to taste

Salt and Pepper to taste



INSTRUCTIONS:

In a large bowl, mix together your raspberry preserves and softened cream cheese until smooth. Set aside.

Place your bell pepper on a baking sheet lined with foil. Place your oven rack on the second highest position. Roast in a pre-heated 450 degree F. oven for about 30 minutes or until charred. Rotate the pepper 1-2 times during roasting to ensure even charring. Remove pepper from oven and cover with a piece of foil for at least 30 minutes. Remove the stem, charred skin, and seeds from the roasted bell pepper. Give it a rough chop on your cutting board. Place chopped bell pepper in a cheese cloth, give it a squeeze over the sink to rid any excess liquid. Place bell pepper in a food processor along with your softened cream cheese, honey, salt n pepper, and sriracha. Pulse until smooth. Stop the motor and scrape the sides down at least once. Taste check for seasoning.
