Beef Wrap (Easy and Healthy)

BEEF WRAP

Easy, healthy and delicious beef wrap with fresh salsa.   Greek or plain yogurt  and feta cheese are used as substitutes instead of heavy cream and cheese.  The fresh lettuce and cucumber make the wrap healthier and refreshing to eat. Grilling the wrap adds crispiness and texture.

This beef wrap is a combination of fajita and greek salad.

Simple and tasty recipe for a relaxing dinner.  Works for lunch and snack too.
