Wrap it up!

I've been craving wraps with crisp, fresh veggies lately... probably due to the warmer weather. Someone told me about "everything" wraps with only 80 calories and while I stood there drooling and super excited I came up with this wrap idea. Made it today and now I'm sold. I may eat this every day for the foreseeable future. So I'm sharing it with you...

Very Veggie & Hummus Wrap 

1 Tumaro's Everything New York Style Deli Wrap (click here!)

1/4 red pepper - cut into strips

3 - 4 slices of tomatoes on the vine

2 tbsp. Grandessa Garlic Lovers Hummus (or any other you prefer - 40 calories per 2 tbsp)

1/4 c. Mann's Rainbow Salad

2 slices yellow onion

1/2 c. baby spinach

2 tbsp. homemade tzatziki - see below

Total calories - 200

Tzatziki sauce

1 container plain Greek yogurt

2-3 tbsp. finely diced cucumber

1-2 tbsp. lemon juice

2 tsp. garlic powder

sea salt

black pepper

My New Favorite Summer Salad...

Let me start by saying if you have a grill, you should use it. Some of us in apartments don't have that luxury and crave that charred taste badly!

Summer Salad

7 oz. baby carrots, cut lengthwise in half

1/2 small white onion, cut in 1/2" slices

1 medium zucchini, cut in 1/2" slices

6 oz. sweet potato, skin on or off, cut in 1/4" slices

5 oz. chicken breast

1-2 cups baby spinach

1/3 cup fresh lime chipotle corn**

1 lime

garlic powder (to taste)

sea salt to taste

Now, if you have a grill, you can grill all your veggies and your chicken - minus the corn and spinach. If you do not, roast your veggies at 350 degrees for about 35 minutes. Season the chicken breast with freshly squeezed lime (about half), sea salt and garlic powder. You can also toss your chicken in the oven as well - depending on thickness it should take about the same amount of time as the veggies. 

Dear veggie friends, you can easily omit the chicken! Save yourself 130 calories. :)

Once all the veggies and chicken is cooked place on top of fresh baby spinach. Next top your salad with 1/3 cup of the corn recipe below.

Total Calories: 400 (and this is a lot of food!)

**Fresh Lime Chipotle Corn

2 medium ears of fresh corn, husked and rinsed, shaved off cob

1/2 juice of a lime

1/4-1/2 tsp. chipotle chile powder (depends on how much spice you want - it's hot!)

Mix well and refrigerate.
