Kev Tip

Sear halloumi fresh. Halloumi is best when it is hot and golden. Cook it right before assembling for the best salty, crispy texture.

Make It Fit Your Macros Lower carb: use Joseph’s Lavash or another low-carb wrap.
Leaner: use 1 oz halloumi per wrap or swap in reduced-fat feta.
More filling: add extra arugula, cucumber, or a side salad.
