Veggie Wrap!


Since being new to this whole (as much as I can afford) organic lifestyle - one that includes eating WAY less meat - I was on the lookout for something easy to put together for lunch.  I made up something today that had much more flavor than I expected and was very satisfying!  
 Locally,  I've found Kroger has the largest selection of organic items.  I found these Ezekiel 4:9 sprouted whole grain tortillas this morning in the organic freezer section.   I was quite surprised at their relatively mellow flavor, I think I expected something more overwhelming, but I was very pleased with them and will most definitely be buying them again.  I then layered on some veggie goodness!  Kroger's Simply Truth organic triple bean blend, Simple Truth spinach leaves, Athenos spicy 3 pepper hummus (this part is a must to give it a kick of flavor!), feta cheese crumbles, Simple Truth frozen edamame, and some chopped up avocado!  Rolled it up into a wrap - and it was rather amazing!  Whole grains, protein, veggies - you really can't ask for more in a lunch wrap!

Kris' Chicken Wraps

These wraps are quick and easy, and so delicious!  I made these up for lunch today, and was so pleased!

4 oz. chicken breast, cooked and diced
3 Tablespoons finely diced apple (I left the peel on)
3 Tablespoons canned light mandarin oranges, each segment cut in half
1 Tablespoon finely chopped red onion
1 Tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro
3 Tablespoons plain greek yogurt
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

Mix above ingredients together in a bowl, adding the yogurt/lemon juice last.  This made plenty for 2 soft taco size tortillas.  (I used chi-chi brand tortilla's because that is what I had on hand, but there are definitely more calorie friendly options out there!).
