tiffnie 3 Posted January 27, 2011 Ok so I was browsing The World According to Eggface and I came across her "Master List" of wraps, using low carb whole wheat tortillas. Being an on-the-go person, I am always lugging little containers of healthy goodness everywhere with me, and I can appreciate the simplicity and convenience of a wrap. Even though I have sworn off carbs for now, I think I ill make an exception for the tortillas mentioned here - 80cals/12 g carbs/2 g Protein. (They are more like soft taco size Im assuming) I think that one of these puppies with some turkey, cheese and veggie inside would probably last 2 meals with me. Anyway heres the link: http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2007/08/its-wrap-and-product-review.html She also uses these tortillas for homemade pizzas, which look so so tasty!

Tiffykins 673 Posted January 27, 2011 I love wraps, and during my losing stage I did skip the tortillas and used romaine lettuce hearts, or other hearty lettuce varieties instead of tortillas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klus263 9 Posted January 27, 2011 the other night I made Protein style burgers. Basically it was a mini slider (very lean ground beef) wrapped in lettuce. My husband loved it. I just ate the cheeseburger (I am still not cleared for raw veggies yet). If you live near an In-N-Out burger, this is on their secret menu. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do miss In n Out, to think I used to have Double-Double with fries - both Animal style :/ YIKES! The slider sounds like such a good idea, esp with the hot Cali weather coming, those would be perfect for a BBQ. Grilled chicken strips w buffalo sauce would be good Protein style too. Yum.

Globetrotter 1,340 Posted January 29, 2011 I discovered using spring roll wrappers instead of tortillas for even lower carb count. All this talk of tasty wraps makes me think of making skinny cheeseburgeritos, tubes of grilled burger rather than flat patties, minced Tomato, cheese, slivered pickle, mayo & mustard, all wrapped up tight in a thick lettuce leaf. Two or three of those, each no bigger than a small cigar, sounds yu-um!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
