okay - not really about crickets
though they may be a better alternative - WAY less calories!!

who knew that a flimsy little ol' flour tortilla would have so many calories!!!
YIKES
220???
I may be be making black beans wraps in pita instead : /

    isn't it amazing how many calories are wasted on something that doesn't even taste that good? Lettuce would have far less calories and just as much flavor!!

    I just discovered Trader Joe's whole wheat tortillas. The smaller size only has 45 calories and I wouldn't even call it all that small. Definitely worth a try if you can find them.

    Flat Out Flatbreads....their Italian seasoned lite breads are 90 cals, low carb, high fiber and taste good. i use them to make all kinds of wraps (egg salad, turkey, tuna, etc)


    edit: also makes a badass pizza that comes in at about 230 cals (1 flatbread, cheese, tomato sauce and turkey pepperoni)
