Ingredients
  

8 ounces lean turkey breast, thinly sliced

1 cup raw spinach leaves

1/2 cup cucumber, thinly sliced

1/2 cup bell pepper, thinly sliced (red, yellow, or green)

1/4 cup hummus (any flavor)

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: Fresh herbs (like dill or parsley) for garnish

Instructions
 

Start by laying out the turkey breast slices on a clean surface or large cutting board. Ensure they are slightly overlapping to create a base for your rollups.

    In a small bowl, mix the hummus with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until combined. This will serve as your spread.

      Spread a thin layer of the seasoned hummus over the turkey slices, leaving about half an inch on each edge.

        On one end of each turkey slice, layer a few spinach leaves, a couple of cucumber slices, and a few bell pepper slices.

          Starting from the end with the veggies, carefully roll the turkey slice up tightly, ensuring the filling stays inside. Repeat with the remaining turkey slices and fillings.

            If necessary, secure each rollup with a toothpick.

              Slice each rollup in half or thirds for bite-sized pieces if desired.

                Optional: Garnish with fresh herbs for an added touch of flavor and color.
