This Veggie Wrap is stuffed full of fresh vegetables and sprouts and makes for a filling lunch that’s healthy and of course very yummy. Make these veggie wraps for your kids lunch boxes, take one as a brown bag lunch to the office, or bring them on a picnic.

Use whatever vegetables and lettuce is in season, or you already have on hand. I’ve used chunks of cucumber, pea pods, grated zucchini and thinly sliced peppers in these wraps. Of course you can also vary the type of lettuce and cheese you use.

These wraps are also easily customized to everyone’s particular taste. My daughter for example can’t stand onions and my husband isn’t very fond of blue cheese. I just make up the basic wraps and leave out the onion on one and put grated cheddar cheese on one instead of the blue cheese.

Cold Vegetable Wrap

1/2 c. fat-free cream cheese
4 8-inch flour tortillas
2/3 c. romaine lettuce, shredded
2/3 c. red cabbage, shredded
1 red tomato, diced
1/4 c. red onions, sliced
1/3 c. carrots, grated
1/4 c. blue cheese
1 c. alfalfa sprouts

Spread cream cheese on one side of tortilla. Divide remaining ingredients evenly and add to tortilla. Roll tortilla closed and cut each diagonally in half.

Tips: You can use various vegetable to make this a bit different each time. Also, try adding flavored cream cheese.
