Frequently Asked Questions

Can I substitute walnuts with other nuts?

Yes, pecans or almonds work well as alternatives, providing similar crunch and flavor to the wrap.

Is there a way to make this wrap vegan-friendly?

Replacing goat cheese with a plant-based cream cheese and using maple syrup keeps the wrap vegan while preserving its taste.

What greens complement the flavors best?

Baby arugula or mixed baby greens add a fresh, slightly peppery note that balances the tartness of cranberries and sweetness of honey.

How long can the wrap be stored before serving?

It's best enjoyed immediately but can be wrapped tightly and refrigerated for up to 24 hours to maintain freshness.

Can I add spices to enhance flavor?

A sprinkle of cracked black pepper or fresh thyme can add subtle warmth and complexity to the wrap's flavor profile.
