These are such a great alternative to wraps or sandwiches. Cold meat wraps are so easy and so versatile.
Any thin cold meat will do and are fabulous for lunch or a snack. Low carb and grain-free simplicity at it’s best.
Cold Meat Wraps
Instead of bread or wraps, use thin slices of cold meat instead and make bread-free rolls. You can use any cold meat you like and any filling you like.
Use thinly sliced meat from the bone (not the preformed ultra-processed meat) and placing some cheese or salad inside, roll it up, and secure with a toothpick.
I usually add cheese, capsicum etc and then roll it all up in the ham. Voila!
There are so many ideas for bread-free and wheat-free school lunch boxes. Take a look at my 8 part series on Low Carb Kids.
All the school lunches I make are low-carb, wheat-free, grain-free, gluten-free and packed with nutrition.

I absolutely love this idea of Cold Meat Wraps. I’ve made these countless times with different variations and they’ve become one of my easy go-to snacks. It’s simple, but a great way to make fresh, raw veg more interesting for kids. My son loves the look of these, especially when I put tooth picks in them. My favourite variation is avocado, cheddar and raw red capsicum wrapped in either roast beef or chilli chicken, yum! 🙂
