I was out shopping yesterday and saw some tortilla wraps that looked good and ended up searching for something to use them for. I decided on trying to make veggie wraps. Without a specific recipe, I had no clue where to even start. I picked out some veggies I like and decided I would give it a shot for lunch today. My new lunch recipe included:

1/2 small onion
1/2 green bell pepper
1/2 red bell pepper
2 small vine ripe tomatoes
3 babby bella portabella mushrooms
3 – 10 inch tortilla wraps

I sliced the peppers, onions and mushrooms really thin and cut up the tomatoes into small chunks and set it all aside while i heated the tortillas in a small frying pan. After the tortillas were heated I set the veggies in the pan and put some wishbone fat free Italian dressing on it and cooked it just long enough for the veggies to be slightly warm and bendy. Iused a slotted spoon to let some of the juice drain off and then placed the mix on a wrap and filled up.

The recipe ingredients I used were enough for 4 wraps. I ate three of them and then finished the veggies. I was particularly hungry today. The veggies totaled about 153 calories with 9.4 grams of fiber. I used a bit too much dressing… about 5 servings worth. I need to cut back on that next time. That totaled 100 calories and the wraps totaled 300 calories and 24 grams of fiber. So I got a full belly on less than 600 low fat calories and I got close to an entire days worth of fiber in one meal. Not bad. And if you aren’t quite as hungry a I was you could probably fill up for half of that. The best part is, it was mighty tasty!
