You might not know this about me, but I’m a big fan of wraps. That should really come as no surprise. If you’ve been reading my blog for any amount of time, you know I’m a big fan of food, in general! Wraps, though, have always been a favorite of mine. They’re easy to make, and they’re perfect for family dinners or quick, grab-and-go meals. And the best part is you can do so much with them! If you can wrap it up in a tortilla, you should. That’s my motto. These chopped Italian wraps are a favorite of mine because they combine so many delicious Italian flavors into one easy-to-eat meal I love serving to family and friends for lunch, dinner, or at potlucks.
Chopped Italian Wrap
This delicious wrap starts with a creamy mix of lettuce, red onions, relish, banana peppers, mayo, and Italian dressing that I chill until ready to use. Then, I cook chopped ham, pepperoni, and salami in a skillet until warmed through. Finally, I heat the tortillas and fill them with the lettuce mixture, provolone cheese, and chopped meats. After that, I just wrap them up and serve. They’re a quick and easy meal that everyone always loves, and they always come back for more. I make a triple batch of these if I’m serving them at potlucks. They’re that good!

Recipe FAQ
A chopped Italian wrap is a wrap filled with Italian meats, provolone cheese, and a creamy lettuce mixture made with mayonnaise, Italian dressing, and various other Italian-inspired ingredients.
You can make the lettuce mixture up to a day in advance. However, I recommend making the rest of the recipe when you plan to serve it for best results.
Pepperoni, ham, salami, mortadella, ham, and hot capicola all pair well together and can be used in any combination you like.
Traditionally, an Italian sub has capicola, salami, pepperoni, and ham, although other Italian cold cuts may be used, depending on the variety of sub and the region where it’s made.
How to Store Leftover Chopped Italian Wraps
For best results, I recommend serving one wrap per person, then making more if requested. The lettuce mixture and meat mixture should be refrigerated separately in airtight containers. Both will last for up to four days. Store your tortillas in an airtight container at room temperature.
