Today's Recipe: Pepper and Avocado Wraps

Looking for a quick lunch or snack? Try a tasty pepper and avocado wrap. Not only are they DELICIOUS, but they are healthy. They contain some very good for you veggies, as well as a little dairy and some healthy fat. Yes, that's right. Healthy fat. Not all fats are a bad thing. Look for an upcoming post about fat in the next couple days. In the meantime, try these super yummy wraps. (I must send a big thanks to my mom, Lori, for this recipe.)

Personally, I am not a big fan of the whole wheat wraps - I often purchase the Smart Wraps that taste more like a flour tortilla but actually contain more whole grains. I do recommend you peek at the fat content of the wraps before you buy - many contain a LOT of fat.

Combine the following ingredients in a tortilla wrap of your choice:

• red and yellow peppers
• green onion
• avocado
• low fat cheddar cheese
• salsa
• grilled chicken (optional)
• apple slices (optional)

The combination of ingredients makes for a surprisingly tasty combination. To be honest, when my mom first told me about the wraps I thought they sounded boring. Turns out they are anything but.
