It's a Wrap

Since we are all about food today...I'm making a bizarre confession.  Until this week, I had never made a wrap in my life.  I, like every woman in the world, love hot and saucy foods.  I'd pass right by the cold wrap menu in a restaurant.  Puh-lease....give me the hot roast beef sandwich with fries, smothered in gravy.  That gravy settled right in my butt.  When that area ran out of room...it dripped to the thighs...hips...stomach.  You get the point.  Anyway, the idea of actually making a wrap myself never entered my mind.  Too plain tasting...blah.  Then, I made a decision to boost the exercise in my life and eat more salads for lunch and dinner.  I pushed back with a fury, insisting I hated every step.  But, somewhere along the way, I started to like and look forward to those salads.  I entered a workout class at the gym.  The nutritionist took us on a grocery store tour, pointing out these great low-cal wraps.  I bit the bullet and bought them, along with meat, cheese, fresh spinach, onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes.  As soon as I got home...I made that wrap...and I liked it!!!  It may seem odd to all of you out there in blog land that this is my first wrap encounter.  But, in the past I've always indulged in whatever I wanted to eat.  Now, I'm trying to make healthier choices.  I did it.  It's a wrap.
P.S.  If you want that hot and saucy treat....scroll down for Chef Donavan's Tasty Tuesday selection.
