Healthy Wrap Ideas
Is your wrap game getting stale? Here are some tips to keep your meals feeling fresh.
Avoid soggy wraps
Some wraps are better eaten right away. Others can stand firm even after sitting in your lunch bag all day at work. Test them out to see how they work best. Or store your
dressing or
sauce in a separate container until you're ready to eat.
Don’t be afraid of flavor
If you're wondering what to put on your wrap, don't worry. The sky's the limit! Don't shy away from
spices, herbs, condiments and sauces. You can get just as spicy and flavorful with your wrap as with any other stew, sauté, stir fry or dish. That means going to town and adding additional flavors.
Try out spices you would use with your favorite international cuisine.
Curry powder,
chili powder,
cumin,
paprika,
ginger,
cinnamon and
marjoram add pop. Herbs like cilantro, basil, mint, parsley, lemongrass and thyme add dimension.
Explore all the various options. Get creative with sauces, and mix and match your flavors.
Miso,
tahini,
bean spreads,
nut butter, sweet creams,
oils, tangy
vinegar, lemon and lime infused condiments and
spicy sauces completely change a meal. Use them on their own or pair them in unexpected ways.
Get creative with ingredients
Add in ALL kinds of ingredients. Try everything from leftovers, raw and cooked vegetables, fruits, spreads, beans, healthy grains and chocolate create completely reimagined wrapped meals.
Think outside the wrap
Play with how you use your wrap. Sure, the traditional roll,
taco,
quesadilla or
burrito style works well. But what about other uses? Baked, toasted or even fried wraps are scrumptious – both before and after ingredients are added. Chop them up to make chips for dipping or crumble them to make croutons and toppings on salads and bowls.
