We tried to make some of those for a picnic last weekend. Didn't turn
out too well -- they were a bit "loose" and soggy, and the rolls didn't
cut "cleanly" like the professionally-made ones we've seen. We used
chopped olives, tomato (de-juiced) ricotta or feta cheese; forgot what
else.

Anybody got some recipes for tasty fillings *and a how-to* they'd like
to share?

thx, Isaac

You probably over moistened the lavosh. After that, it could have
been your tomato.

I've only had them made with flour tortillas
spread with cream cheese mixed with chopped chiles
and well-drained chopped black olives or cream cheese
and deviled ham and chopped sweet pickle.

I think your filling ingredients were too wet.

Not quite sure what the "lavosh" means, but I make several
different varieties of these done in tortillas. One point
that others mentioned is absolutely true: soggy in =
soggy out.

As far as cutting them, I put my whole rolls in the freezer
for 1.5-2.5 hours, get them "half frozen" which is a state
where they are firm but you can still get a knife through
them. If you forget and leave them in all night, you'll
need power tools or sme thaw time.

A google on lavosh turns up an Armenian flat bread.

I know. I've also seen rollups made with other "flat" breads besides
"lavosh." Unless the poster actually cares to clarify, we don't know if
he means lavosh or another commercially prepared flat bread for "wraps"
which look like large flour tortillas. The ones I've seen would get
very soggy, very quickly using the ingredients he used.

Oh, I do this. I spread cream cheese on the large flour tortillas then
top with ham or smoked turkey and just a very, very thin spred of honey
or dijion mustard. Then you roll them and cut slightly on the diagonal.
A toothpick will help prevent them from unwrapping but if you pack
them tightly onto the serving plate you shouldn't have a problem. They
tend to be a huge hit for some reason. It boggles me because they are
so easy to make. These don't get soggy either.

(snip definitions) I know the definitions, I just didn't get why
Sandi thought they meant lavish maybe when lavosh was dead
on in context with the query.

It's as if I said, I have a book, and someone said maybe she
meant she has a car?

Thank you, Alan, for looking it up for me. Sandi just
confused me when she said maybe someone meant lavish
when they said lavosh. End of subject.

I've done them this way too and they're winners, but my fave is very
thin sliced rare roast beef from the deli fanned over a thin layer of
cream cheese mixed with creamed horseradish. I add a few of leaves very
dry Bibb lettuce (spines removed), and a couple of good grinds of
pepper (and a bit of paper-thin red onion if I'm feeling frisky), then
roll tightly. Roll the roll up in plastic wrap and twist the ends.
Chill for a while before slicing on the diagonal & allow warm to room
temp before serving. They stay together nicely and everybody scarfs
'em.

Yup. Lavosh; Armenian flat bread.

My wraps are more mundane, with cream cheese, ham, roast beef, etc, not
using lavosh as the bread (using flour tortillas). The ingredients used
by the OP (except tomatoes)were "lavish" in my world.

There's a whole new world of hot ones out there to explore!
Just about any breakfast meat with a little shredded cheese and
scrambled eggs; "pulled" chicken/beef/pork with veggies and
rice; your best turkey stuffing recipe; etc.

Freeze, slice into cookies, hit 'em with an egg wash, and then
bake at 400 for about 10 minutes. Lots of prep time but they
are great finger food (what those of us who don't know how to
spell 'h'ordurves' call them <g>)

I buy a lot of "junk" at the local Post Office auctions,
they have them twice a year, and you can see eerything
before you bid on it. It's items where the box has been
destroyed, people decide they don't want something and
just dump it back into the mailbox and it falls apart, etc.
So this one time out I spot one of these gizmos!. The
plastic tube with the clamps and the suction ball and the
magic snake oil in a tube, and I figure "what the heck".
I bid for it and got it for three bucks. Such a deal!

OK, so the temptation got to me, you know. Give it a
try. Did it work, Did I add inches overnight??? I dunno.
I couldn't get the damned thing on. It was just too
(sigh) -tight-.
