Pesto Turkey Wraps

We’ve hit the point of summer that I’ve exhausted all the quick and easy lunch ideas I have up my sleeve. If you’re in a lunch slump too you’ll want to mix up things up with Pesto Turkey Wraps. It is simple to make, but much tastier than the soggy ham sandwich you’ve been eating for lunch. The key to this recipe is the Pesto Mayo, which makes this wrap come alive.
