Instructions
Step 1
To start, take a piece of flatbread or lavash. If desired, you can give it a light char using a torch, as this adds a deeper flavor reminiscent of toasted bread.
This step is optional but enhances the taste, making your snack even more delicious.
Step 2
Next, using a vegetable peeler, create thin slices of cucumber. Aim for delicate, even slices, which will add a lovely crunch to your wrap.
Set your cucumber slices aside after preparing them.
Step 3
Now it's time to assemble the wrap. On the flatbread, spread a thin layer of cream cheese evenly across the entire surface.
Next, place fresh red basil leaves on top, followed by the cucumber slices and strips of smoked bacon. This combination of ingredients will give the wrap a rich and appealing flavor.
Step 4
Carefully roll the flatbread, making sure to keep the filling intact. Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice the wrap into bite-sized pieces.
Your New Year’s light snack is ready to be enjoyed! Serve immediately and relish the delightful taste of this unique ingredient combination.
Servings
Serving this delightful New Year’s light snack is all about presentation and pairing. **Serve them on a wooden board** for a rustic, cozy feel. You can add some **colorful cherry tomatoes** or **olive tapenade** on the side to bring out a vibrant display that catches the eye. 🌟
Feeling extra festive? Try garnishing with a few fresh basil leaves on top, or a sprinkle of paprika for a pop of color. You might even consider serving with a **light dip**, such as tzatziki, for an added fresh twist! 🥒
🍾 Pair with sparkling water or a light cocktail to elevate your serving experience. These rolls make for the perfect bite as you toast to the New Year, creating a snack that’s just as fun to eat as it is to prepare!
Equipment
This handy tool is perfect for giving your lavash that delicious smoky flavor. If you don’t have one, broiling in the oven can also create a similar effect. Just watch it closely to avoid burning!
A simple peeler will help you create thin, delicate cucumber slices for a beautiful presentation. If you want an even fancier touch, a spiralizer can add fun shapes!
A sharp knife is key for cutting your rolled snack cleanly, allowing for beautiful, bite-sized pieces that make serving easy and stylish.
