Low Cal Wraps!

I'm looking for some Low Cal Wraps. I've been using Joseph's Flax Tortilla's and their Lavish Bread or Pita for a while and I am really kind of getting sick of those & they also have a lot of sodium.
I'm not a huge fan of bread although there seems to be a lot of low calorie options there, minus Joseph's products I haven't come across many low calorie wraps. I'd prefer a maximum of 100 calories.
Any favorites? It doesn't have to be low carb, but they tend to go hand in hand.

I love Joseph's, they're really the fluffiest pita-types you'll find. I get La Tortilla Factory Smart wraps sometimes too (but they're pricey.) I think it's about 50 cals for a decent-sized tortilla.0

Maybe I should try another kind of Joseph's Product I know they have a lot but it's the sodium that bothers me. It seems like a lot of sodium for something so small, and if I'm adding deli meat to it then that just blows my sodium through the roof all before dinner.
I'll have to look into La Tortilla's I think I may use that brand when making burrito's and/or quesadilla's and they are pretty good0 -
I'm in love with these: http://www.flatoutbread.com/products/flatout-wraps/flatout-light/light-original/
They are 90 calories.0 -
I like banana wraps.
Spread peanut butter (or in my case, PB2) on tortilla and sprinkle with cinnamon. Wrap the tortilla around a banana... and eat!
With PB2, the calories are a lot lower.0 -

I forgot about Flatout. These are great too, a bit more like pitas than tortillas, which is great for sandwiches/wraps. Also a bit expensive, though.0 -
I use flat out lots of fiber 90 calories regular and italian flavor has some flaxsee in it I think and 9 grams fiber0

Another vote for Flat Out brand. All are 90-100 calories and low net carb (high fiber). But the best thing IMO is that they are slightly longer than tortillas or other wraps I've found, which allows me to wrap up 1 - 1.5 cups of leafy greens in addition to the ingredients in a standard sandwich.0

I like Ole Extreme Welness High Fiber Wraps, 90 cals a piece and they come in plain, tomato basil and spinach!0

If you don't have a medical reason to be low-sodium, I wouldn't really worry about it. If I eat something with a lot of sodium I just make sure to drink extra water - your body can flush it out pretty easily.0 -

Holy freaking crap this literally sounds like the most amazing thing on the planet! I just turned my sister onto PB2 & I told her about your post and she agrees you're a genius.
It's so simple and yet I never thought to do that!
And thank you for all the suggestions for other wraps everyone!
High blood pressure runs in my family, mine is fine (actually even a little on the low side) but I know sodium can contribute to that. It also makes me really bloated which is uncomfortable. And generally speaking I just try not go eat crazy amounts of sodium, especially because I'm not great about drinking water.
Both brands mentioned sound great! Joseph's doesn't make anything besides plain and it'd be nice to have a variety. I'm excited. I'll certainly be on the look out for these brands when I go shopping this week0
