The basil and garlic flavored goat cheese coats the palate with its tangy creaminess while the fresh lettuce and sliced tomatoes add freshness and crunch. The whole wheat wrap provides fiber, making it a more satisfying and healthy meal than its white flour counterpart. This Roast Beef and Chevre Wrap recipe is easy to prepare and can be taken to work or enjoyed at home.

4.Fold the wrap in half, tuck in the sides, then roll it up tightly from one end to the other with stern pressure to keep it closed.
5.Slice and serve.
