*Yes, this wrap is not whole grain, but with only 100 Calories, 160 mg Sodium, 3g Protein, 17 Carbs, 1g Fiber, and 0g Sugar I still enjoy them once in a while. The whole grain wraps often have more Sodium and Sugar (and yes, more Fiber) so I enjoy both for their differing health benefits and flavors.

RECIPES:
Fresh Salsa Recipe:
Into food processor put:
1 large Garlic clove
1/4 White Onion
2 Scallions
1 pint Cherry Tomatoes
juice from 1/2 Lime
large handful of Cilantro
Salt, to taste
While processing ingredients, stream in 1 tbsp EVOO. Let sit in fridge for a few hours before serving.
Veggie Mango Curry Recipe:
1 tbsp EVOO
1/2 White Onion, chopped
1/2 Zucchini, diced
1 tsp crushed Garlic
1/2 tbsp Red Pepper Flake
Salt/ Pepper to taste
1 cup Carrots, chopped
1 cup Mushrooms
1 Parsnip, skinned and chopped
1 Yukon Gold Potato, chopped (leaving skins on)
2 cups No Salt Added Chopped Tomatoes
1 handful Arugula
1 cup Low Sodium Veggie Broth
1/2 cup jarred Mango Curry Simmer Sauce (I used Patak's)
fresh cut Cilantro
In warmed pan, swirl EVOO and add Onion and saute until soft. Add Zucchini and brown in pan. Once browned add Garlic, Red Pepper Flake and Salt/ Pepper and saute another minute or two, until fragrant. Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce and simmer for 30 minutes, or until Veggies are at desired doneness. Serve with Beans, Nuts, Fish , Chicken, Quinoa or Brown Rice. Top with Cilantro.
Note: I love the convenience of jarred sauces, but if you have the time to brown some Veggies and add a couple more spices to your meal you will have a more complex flavor. Also I try to use limited quantities of jarred sauces, as most tend to be high in sodium. In this case a 1/2 cup serving had nearly 500 mg of sodium, so I subbed in some Low Sodium Vegetable Broth to split the difference (the above recipe made 2 servings, so I ate half, thus getting only 250 mg of sodium from the jarred sauce).
