Recipe FAQs

Can I substitute walnuts with other nuts?

Yes, pecans or almonds can be used as alternatives to walnuts for a similar crunchy texture and nutty flavor.

Is there an option to make this wrap vegan?

Replacing goat cheese with a plant-based cheese alternative and using maple syrup instead of honey can make this wrap suitable for a vegan diet.

What greens work best in this wrap?

Mixed baby greens, arugula, or spinach all provide fresh, peppery notes that complement the sweetness of cranberries and richness of goat cheese.

How should I store the wraps if not eaten immediately?

Wrap the assembled rolls tightly in parchment paper or plastic wrap and refrigerate. Consume within a day for best freshness.

Can I prepare the components in advance?
