Golfing Makes Me Hungry So I Pack a Lunch
I consider myself a bit of a wrap-master and I’m not talking about singing.
I’m talking about sandwich wraps. Very tasty sandwich wraps to be precise.
Sandwich Wraps Are So Easy to Make
I hate to admit it but sometimes the night before a game of golf I will lay in bed and try and recall what is in the refrigerator and wonder, what kind of wrap can I make for tomorrow’s game?
Always Stay Prepared
I always keep tortilla shells on hand during the golf season. The “wrap of the day” will depend on what is in the refrigerator.
To speed the wrap-making process up on golf day, I keep some diced onions, pickles, and tomatoes in the refrigerator. They are great to add to most of the wraps I make.
Top Five Sandwich Wraps for the Golf Course
#1: Steak and Blue Cheese
My absolute fav. No doubt about it. As I stand at the BBQ cooking up a couple of ribeye steaks for dinner, I am licking my chops about the following day's steak & blue cheese wrap for golf.
Lay your tortilla shell down, spread some mayo on it, throw in some shaved ribeye steak, and sprinkle chunks of blue cheese throughout. I also like to add chopped onion, tomato, and a little lettuce to this wrap.
#2: Roast Turkey and Bacon
It is never a bad day when you are packing a turkey and bacon wrap with your golf gear. All you need is some chopped-up bacon and a few slices of roasted turkey.
With all of my wraps, this one gets the mayo treatment. Add in the two signature ingredients and garnish to taste. I like to add chopped onion, lettuce, tomato, and some thinly sliced pickles.
#3: Ham and Cheese
No magic here. Mayo treatment, ham, shredded cheddar cheese, and whatever extras you have. This wrap also gets the onions, tomato, pickle, and lettuce treatment. If there is leftover Caesar salad in the refrigerator, that goes in and the lettuce stays out. Oh yeah, some XXX Hot Mustard too. Gotta have a little heat to get that extra 10 yards off the tee after getting a few bites of this bad boy into you.
#4: Scrambled Eggs With Cheese
My daughter cannot believe that I eat a cold scrambled egg wrap, but I do, and I love it. I must confess, when I make this wrap for my golf lunch, I have to make two because I eat one of them for breakfast.
Throw your tortilla wrap down, spread the mayo, and scramble two eggs in a small frying pan. When the eggs are starting to solidify, toss in some shredded cheddar cheese and sprinkle in some garlic powder and ground black pepper. Once you add the scrambled eggs and cheese to the tortilla shell, toss in some chopped onion and tomato.
Do you have any leftover strips of bacon in the refrigerator? If you do, throw a couple of them in too. Add some ketchup or hot sauce and you're good to go.
#5: Chickpea and Sunflower Wrap
This one takes a little more time but, once you taste it, you will realize that it was well worth the effort. Follow this recipe from the Minimalist Baker and, in just 30 minutes, you will be ready to create this meatless wrap that will not only keep you nourished during your game of golf, it is good for you too. How sweet is that?
I hope that this list of my top five wraps for the golf course didn’t make you too hungry and that you can enjoy them out on the links.
