Hacking Your Tortillas for the Trail

We recently went in search of delicious ways to stuff a tortilla on trail. From sweet potatoes to smoked trout, pinto beans to hommous, you blew us away with filling ideas and alternatives to the tortilla. (Waffles are a revelation.) Illustrator (and WTA volunteer) Rebecca Jensen turned a few of those into this recipe reference.

We've included some extra kid-friendly recipe ideas below the illustration, too.

Try them out and let us know your or your family's favorite wrap ideas.

Dal wrap

A lot of Indian dishes can be wrapped up in a tortilla or naan, but with a dal dish, you'll be sure to get some good protein from the lentils. Plus, there are so many kinds of different takes on dal that you can go back to this combo again and again without ever getting bored.
