For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground turkey with crumbled tofu or tempeh. Adjust the amount of sweet chili sauce to your preferred level of spiciness. If you don't have rice vinegar, apple cider vinegar can be used as a substitute. Try adding other vegetables like shredded cabbage or bell peppers for added crunch and flavor. These wraps can be prepared ahead of time; store the turkey filling and toppings separately and assemble just before serving.
