    I have two favorites:

    Grilled veg wrap - large tortilla spread with either a roasted pepper tapenade or roasted pepper hummus, then pile on grilled portabella mushroom, eggplant, bell pepper and onion. and a slice of low fat provolone. If you want some extra texture, roll it all up and put it back on the grill for a bit like a panini.

    Second is a rotisserie buffalo ranch chicken wrap. Shred or chunk (I like chuncked) a rotisserie chicken, add chopped celery, chopped onion, low fat ranch dressing, your favorite buffalo wing sauce (straight hot sauce works in a pinch) and mix. In the tortilla pile on the chicken mix then shredded lettuce and spinach and chopped tomato.

    I worked in a bistro and my favorite wrap was our protein salad wrap. It's not very complicated, but I can't seem to get enough of em. Best of all is they add up to ~200-300 cals with ~10-30g protein depending on the portions of cheese and meat.

    - Flat out light wrap
    -Generous application of hummis spread
    -shreaded turkey and ham
    -lettace
    -tomato
    -cheese
    -a few onions

    I make my own wraps out of chick pea flour and I like to spread Kroger private selection yogurt dips on them and throw on a slice of light balogna and a celery stick. Only around 140 cals. Per wrap.

    Interesting! Can u share recipe plz :smile:

    I mass produce wraps for my kid and fiance so they have easy lunches. Their favorite is roast beef with onion and saracha sauce and cheese, I also make turkey/ham/cheese, ham/cheese, taco, chicken fajhitas (super easy to bake everything all at once), and sometimes I'll make them breakfast burritoes with eggs, cheese, sausage and salsa.

    I use the fiber one wraps, with thinly sliced chicken or shrimp, sauteed peppers, onions and advocado slices.

    Not a real wrap, but today I used green leaf lettuce as wraps for the first time and it was really good.


    I do this for tacos and fajitas sometimes. It does a pretty good job when I am low on calories at dinner

    Bump for ideas. Oh and one of my favorites is broccoli slaw cooked in a little coconut oil with Cajun seasoning and grilled chicken. We usually use lettuce as the wrap.

    I make myself a veggie wrap for lunch and it is soooo good, thought I would share in case anyone else would like to make one...

    1 tomato wrap

    3 small sweet peppers (red, yellow, and orange)

    1/2 cup canned mushrooms (fresh, if you do not prefer canned)

    1/4 cup sliced onions

    1/4 cup avacado

    *I sautéed all of the veggies, but you can add them raw if you like*

    1/3 cup of low fat shredded cheese (I used Weight Watchers reduced fat shredded Mexican cheese)

    1 tbsp. of salsa (which now gave tomatoes, and a little extra onions and peppers)

    I also had a 1/2 cup of black beans as a side

    Total calories, including the side of beans is less than 400!

    I am always looking for new things to try for lunch and dinner, and this wrap was so delicious, and I was so full after I was done eating, and you can add other veggies, chicken, and even rice, hope this helps someone else looking for a lunch idea!

    Lately I've been having dry uncured salami, 2 slices of bacon, thinly sliced tomato, romaine or spinach, and a slice of havarti. It's really good without the bacon too, but I'm not one to omit bacon :)
