Veggie Wraps

Last night for dinner R and I made Veggie Wraps. Check the calorie count on a just the wrap itself with no filler next time. Even spinach ones can have a pretty high calorie count for a bread product. The other thing to look for is the amount of sodium. You'd be surprised how many milligrams of sodium some bread products have.

We could not find a whole wheat wraps at the store, and settled for the HEB brand 100% Whole Wheat Tortillas instead. The night before, R had made a yummy soup (recipe forthcoming). We split a tortilla to soak up the rest of the soup at the bottom of the bowl so we knew they were pretty good.

Here's what I put in my wrap:

  • Mustard
  • Mixed Lettuce
  • Red Bell Pepper (they were cheaper than green ones this week at the store) :)
  • Cucumber
  • Tomato
  • Red Onion
  • Feta

YUM! I love feta! The whole wheat tortilla can be very filling due to the high fiber content and it does have some protein. For a side, we had raspberries, blueberries, and grapes. It was a great summer meal.
