These Easy Healthy Turkey Roll Ups with Fresh Veggies are quick, simple, and perfect for a fresh, crunchy snack or light lunch. They combine tender turkey slices with crisp vegetables and a flavorful spread for a wholesome bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 thin slices of sliced turkey breast (approx. 8 oz / 225 g), preferably nitrate-free, low-sodium deli turkey
  • 1 medium carrot, julienned
  • 1/2 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 small bell pepper (red or yellow), thinly sliced
  • A handful of baby spinach or romaine leaves, washed and dried
  • 2–3 tablespoons hummus or light cream cheese, softened
  • Pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste
  • Optional extras: avocado slices, fresh herbs (basil or parsley), sprouts

Instructions

  1. Wash all fresh veggies thoroughly.
  2. Julienne the carrot into thin, matchstick-sized strips (about 3 inches / 7.5 cm long).
  3. Slice the cucumber and bell pepper into thin strips or rounds as preferred.
  4. Ensure spinach or romaine leaves are dry and whole or torn into smaller pieces. Set veggies aside.
  5. Lay turkey slices flat on a clean plate or cutting board without overlapping too much.
  6. Spread about 1 teaspoon of hummus or cream cheese evenly over each turkey slice.
  7. Arrange a small handful (about 2 tablespoons) of prepared veggies on one edge of each turkey slice.
  8. Optionally sprinkle a pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper over the veggies.
  9. Starting from the edge with the veggies, roll the turkey slice tightly but gently to avoid tearing, overlapping edges slightly to hold the roll.
  10. Secure with a toothpick if needed for serving or transporting.
  11. Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for 15-20 minutes to let flavors meld and make rolling easier.

Notes

Pat veggies dry before assembling to avoid soggy roll ups. Use thin turkey slices for easier rolling. Spread hummus or cream cheese thinly to keep rolls neat. Chill roll ups for 15-20 minutes to meld flavors and improve texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Not recommended to freeze.
