Ingredients
For the vegetable base:

- 1 small potato
- 2 eggs
- 1 handful shredded mozzarella cheese
- Salt and black pepper to taste
For the filling:
- Fresh arugula
- Sliced avocado
- Cooked chicken pieces (grilled or roasted)
For the sauce:
- 2 tablespoons yogurt
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon chopped dill
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the vegetables
Grate the zucchini, carrot, and potato into a large bowl.
Using your hands or a clean towel, squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This step is key to getting a firm, non-soggy wrap.
Step 2: Make the batter
Add the eggs, shredded mozzarella, salt, and black pepper to the drained vegetables.
Mix everything well until combined.
Step 3: Bake the wrap base
Transfer the mixture onto a lined baking tray and spread it evenly into a thin layer.
Bake at 350°F (180°C) for about 30 minutes, or until golden and set.
Step 4: Cool and shape
Let it cool for about 5 minutes.
Carefully remove from the tray—it should hold together like a soft flatbread.
Step 5: Add the filling
Layer with arugula, avocado slices, and juicy chicken pieces.
Step 6: Make the sauce
Mix yogurt, mayonnaise, and dill until smooth.
Drizzle over your filling.
Step 7: Wrap and enjoy
Fold or roll your wrap gently and enjoy immediately!
