The Best Breakfast Wrap

 When I went away to college, they had a little cafe in the gym that had a wrap on the menu made with bananas and peanut butter.  It was pretty good, but too sweet for my liking (crazy, right?).  I noticed that they had fresh strawberries, so I asked the girl if she could make the wrap with the strawberries instead of the bananas.   My favorite breakfast treat was born, and nearly 10 years later I am still making it.  It is the perfect breakfast because it has a good mix of everything to start your day: good fats (from nuts and peanut butter), carbs, and protein.  Can't beat it!

The Best Breakfast Wrap

1 wheat (or any other variety) tortilla

peanut butter

fresh strawberries, sliced

granola (I use Bear Naked Protein Peak)

honey

 Spread peanut butter on the tortilla, then sprinkle on some granola.  Place the strawberry slices on top and drizzle with honey.

Enjoy!

Mediterranean-Inspired Chicken Wraps and Vegetable Couscous

Couscous, where have you been all of my life?  Sadly, this lovely gem was not a part of my household until I began making food for my daughter.  I knew about couscous, but never really came across it in a ton of recipes.  While reading a baby food cookbook, I noticed couscous as a recommended food for babies.  I love introducing new foods to my daughter - so I bought a box for her.  While feeding her, I found myself eating most of this delightful dish.  I love it because it's so simple, healthy, and versatile.  Enjoy this easy and delicious dish for a quick weeknight meal, or a yummy lunch treat!  Wishing you best dishes and yummy dreams!

Chicken and Hummus Wraps

Flatbread wraps (I buy light sundried tomato)

1 package of chicken tenderloins, or 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into strips

Hummus (We love Sabra original flavored hummus)

Greek vinaigrette dressing (or any other salad dressing - we like to use a light Italian

Mixed greens and tomato

Marinate chicken in the salad dressing for an hour.  Cook the chicken in a pan with a tablespoon of olive oil, or on the grill in a grill basket.  Spread the hummus on a wrap, place the chicken and lettuce on the hummus and wrap it up!  *Optional:  You may want to add some feta cheese

Vegetable Couscous

1 zucchini

1 red pepper

1/2 onion

5 Cremini mushrooms

1 clove of garlic

1 box of wheat couscous

olive oil

salt

Slice all veggies and saute them in a pan with a tablespoon or two of olive oil.  Prepare the couscous on the stove according to box directions.  Add in sauteed vegetables, a tsp. of salt, and any other seasonings you might like!  You can put this couscous inside of the wrap, or eat it alone.
