Flavorful Halloumi & Veggie Wraps with Lemon-Tahini

Whip up these delightful Middle Eastern-inspired wraps for a quick and satisfying lunch. Golden pan-fried halloumi cheese, crisp fresh vegetables, and a bright lemon-tahini dressing are all nestled in warm pita bread for a truly enjoyable meal.

✎
HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Slice the halloumi cheese into 1/4-inch thick pieces.

02

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the halloumi slices and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and slightly crispy.

03

While the halloumi cooks, prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, water, and salt until smooth. If the dressing is too thick, add a tiny bit more water until it reaches a pourable consistency.

04

Warm the pita bread according to package instructions, or briefly in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds per side.

05

Assemble the wraps: Spread a spoonful of the tahini dressing inside each warm pita. Fill with the cooked halloumi, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced red onion.

06

Drizzle with any remaining tahini dressing and serve immediately.

Chef's Tips

For extra flavor, sprinkle fresh parsley or mint into the wraps. You can also lightly toast the pita bread in a toaster oven for a crispier texture.

Easy Substitutions

Instead of halloumi, you can use grilled chicken or chickpeas for a different protein. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or spinach. For a gluten-free option, use lettuce wraps instead of pita bread.

Storage & Reheating

These wraps are best enjoyed fresh. If you have leftovers, store the components separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. Reheat halloumi gently in a skillet and assemble just before eating.
