This Week
2 Dec - 8 Dec
Meal Prep Guide
Finely dice 1 red capsicum and 1 zucchini (store together in an airtight container in the fridge).
Prepare the spice mix (store in an airtight jar in the pantry).
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- 2 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp sumac
- Pinch of chilli flakes
Prepare the whipped feta (store in an airtight container in the fridge).
Ingredients
- 100g feta
- ¼ cup greek yoghurt
Method
- To make the whipped feta, simply add the ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. We find that if you use a blender you might need to add a juice of a lemon to get it to blend nicely.
Tips
- Heating the wraps helps to soften them, making it flexible enough to roll and to hold everything inside.
- Note that you will need to use 1 red onion across two elements – in the pickled onion and in the mince. 1/4 will need to be finely sliced while 3/4 needs to be diced.
- If you have made the fritters you would have already prepared the whipped feta.
Shortcuts
- Swap the quick pickled onion for raw red onion.
Shortcuts
Vegetables
- You can add diced carrot and any colour capsicum you’d like to the mince.
- Swap cos to iceberg lettuce, finely sliced cabbage or even spinach.
- Add fresh diced tomato to the wrap.
Protein
- For a vegetarian option, swap beef mince for 1 tin of lentils (drained and rinsed) and 2x capsicums and zucchini.
Other
- For a lighter option, omit the wrap and turn the meal into a salad, using the whipped feta as the dressing.
- Swap the whipped feta for hummus.
Ingredients

- ¼ red onion (finely sliced)
- 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 Tbsp boiling water
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp sugar
Whipped Feta
- 100g feta
- ¼ cup greek yoghurt
Spiced mince filling
- ¾ red onion (finely diced)
- 1 red capsicum (finely diced)
- 1 zucchini (finely diced)
- 600g beef mince
- 2 garlic cloves (crushed)
- 2 tsp smoked paprika

- 8 large flour wraps
- ¼ cup mint (roughly chopped)
- ¼ cup coriander (roughly chopped)
- ½ bag cos (60g)
- ½ cucumber (sliced into half moons)
Method
- Get started by preparing the quick pickled onions. In a small bowl or jar, add the salt and sugar; pour over boiling water and stir to dissolve. Add the vinegar and the finely sliced onions. Use your fingers to separate the onion slices and encourage them to soften; set aside while you prepare everything else.
- To make the whipped feta, simply add the ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy; set aside (note if you have made the fritters you would have already made it).
- To make the mince start by adding a generous drizzle of olive oil to a large fry pan over medium heat. Then add the diced onion, capsicum, zucchini, salt and pepper; saute for 5-10 minutes or until soft.
- Add a little more olive oil to the pan, then add the mince and cook for 7 minutes or until the meat has browned and all the liquid has evaporated.
- Add the garlic, smoked paprika, ground cumin, cumin seeds, ground coriander and sumac; cook for 2-3 minutes until the spices are fragrant.
- Warm the wraps, you can do this using the packet instructions or place each wrap individually onto a dry hot plate, pan or griddle; cook until slightly charred, flip and repeat on the other side.
- Time to assemble the wraps. add some whipped feta to the base of each wrap, and top with some mince, lettuce, cucumber, fresh herbs and pickled onion; wrap up and enjoy.
