Tortilla roll with feta cheese and Hungarian sauce
Diet dinner quickly and easily
Tortilla wraps are also a good choice for dinner. You can fill them with anything you like, but if you’re on a diet, choose a low-calorie sauce and avoid mayonnaise and oily sauces! Fill them with lean meats and forget about crispy fried bacon! Roll in a large portion of fresh, crispy greens (lettuce, cucumber, celery). This will make you feel full and is also healthy. This time, I made a meatless version with feta cheese and Hungarian sauce. Try it if you like the combination of Hungarian and Mediterranean flavors.
Sometimes the best things in the kitchen are created when two completely different worlds meet in a dish. This is how the tortilla roll with feta cheese and Hungarian sauce was born, bringing Mediterranean freshness mixed with the spicy, distinctive flavors of Hungarian cuisine.
The soft embrace of the tortilla provides the perfect base for the creaminess of the salty feta cheese, which melts delicately into the Hungarian-style sauce spiced with paprika cream. The mildly spicy yet deeply aromatic sauce brings a true Hungarian flavor to every bite, while the freshness of the feta provides a delicious contrast. Don’t be afraid to experiment with this unique combination!
Tortilla wraps – store-bought or homemade?
The easiest way is to use store-bought tortillas, but you can also make them at home if you like. You can choose whole wheat or corn flour tortillas, depending on which fits your diet better.
Interesting fact: an average tortilla contains approximately 180-200 calories, while a serving of rice can contain up to 350 calories.

How to cook tortilla wraps perfectly?
Heat up the pan and fry both sides of the tortilla without oil. It will only take a few seconds per side, so keep an eye on the color – when it starts to brown a little, flip it over and fry the other side.
It is important not to overcook it, because then it will harden and be difficult to roll up.
Once ready, spread your favorite topping on it while it’s still warm and fill it with diet-friendly delicacies!
