Super Wrap

I am always disappointed by the wraps I have had at the many sandwich shops around here. Poor quality ingredients that yield a dry, tasteless, less than healthy snack. After having Roxwell my visiting teacher, Sara, brought us these fabulous wraps to satisfy our appetites. Boy, did they ever! So I called her right up and got the dish so I could replicate. There are these fun flat breads at Costco, hiding by the tortillas called “Flat Out.”

We just spread on some hummus (roasted red pepper), pile on a good heap of spinach, line with tomatoes, onions, peppers, avocado, cheese, chicken, tuna, ham, turkey, bacon…whatever you have on hand. Maybe a little mustard and there you have it, a big package of yum-ness. I wrap the kids’ in foil and have them tear it off as they go to prevent a messy fall-apart. I am not a big fan of cold cuts (ya know UBER processed) I try to stick with the real stuff – most of the time.

Jarom has also used them to make a quick pizza with just sauce and cheese melted in the toaster oven. He says it’s good.

  1. Flat Out breads are a staple of Weight Watcher's members and are also available at Sprouts and Walmart by the deli counters. They do work well for pizza, especially if you toast them in the oven before putting the sauce on.

  2. Yum. Yum! I have heard of these flat bread, but now will try. I am on a big wrap kick right now and alternate between Mexican and Asian inspired. The only difference is salsa in one and T.J's Asian Peanut Sauce Salad dressing. Love them with the red pepper hummus! The perfect quick lunch :)

  4. Do you have a recipe to make your own humus? I've been looking for a good one and have been unsuccessful.

  7. Thanks for posting this- I bought these at Costco and threw them in the freezer and have been afraid to try them- I'm not very creative about "throwing things together" I will try your suggestions!

It's rude to eat and run. Humor me with conversation please!
