What you need

The easy way

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise (or yogurt), Dijon mustard, and black pepper until smooth.
  2. Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface and spread the mixture evenly over both, leaving a 1-inch border at the edges.
  3. Layer the turkey slices over the spread, followed by an even distribution of shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Arrange the apple slices in a single layer across the center of each tortilla.
  5. Tightly roll each tortilla into a log, wrap securely in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up before slicing.
  6. Remove from refrigerator, unwrap, and slice into 1-inch pinwheels; pack with an ice pack if serving cold.

Use your senses. Times are guardrails. Look for the color, texture, and doneness cues in the steps, and refrigerate perishable leftovers promptly.
