Fresh Wrap- Perfect for school lunch


Fresh Wrap

Here’s an AMAZING lunch I pack for school almost every day, I just can’t get enough of it! It’s definitely one of my favorite lunches for school and outside of school!It's so full of flavor and the cucumbers make it so good and crunchy.



What you need:
Flour Tortilla
Laughing Cow Creamy Swiss Wedge
Cucumber
Spinach
Red Onion
Feta
Mushrooms
Pepperoncinis
Black Olives
Briannas Caesar Dressing
And whatever else you think would be yummy on it!

Instructions:
Spread Laughing Cow over tortilla. Put the cucumber and spinach on first, then everything else. If you are packing it for school or work, make sure and put about 1 Tablespoon or more of dressing in a small bag so you can drizzle it on top of the wrap before you eat it…we don’t want it getting soggy! If you aren't packing it, go ahead and pour the dressing on top right before you eat it. J The dressing makes it, so make sure you got it!

Quick Healthy Breakfast!

Extreme Toast!
I love this breakfast when I’m in a rush! My mom usually makes an amazing homemade breakfast every morning, but when she takes a break from the kitchen, this is what I make! I especially love it on Dave’s Killer Bread! Quick, easy and healthy!

What you need:
Whole Grain Bread
1 TBS Adams Peanut Butter
Half a banana
Raisins
Chopped walnuts are super yummy on top too!  

The raisins are such a good go together with bananas and peanut butter! Must try!



Good is good

No matter the circumstances, hold fast to what is good. 

Cling to the Lord because He is good.

Skinnier Chai Latte

Almond Milk is down right amazing! I use it instead of milk and I actually prefer it now. Mixing almond milk with chai is just perfect and a lot fewer calories too. I love it!

 What you need:
·      Chai Latte Concentrate (Oregon Chai)
·      Almond milk (Vanilla Almond milk is really good because of its sweetness!)
·      Nutmeg & Cinnamon
·      Homemade whip cream to top it off

Mix ½ cup Chai concentrate and ½ cup Almond Milk. Microwave for about 2 minutes and top with homemade whip cream and nutmeg & cinnamon if desired. J


Love on a Pita!


Presenting the BEST EVER Pita!
This is probably one of my favorite lunches/dinner EVER! Its soooooo delicious…it’s actually mouth watering! I love to make this on a flat bread or on sourdough bread as a panini! Here’s the secret to this amazing sandwich…it’s the dressing! It’s to die for. Go make this pita right away! Enjoy  


Here's what you need to make this: 



-Flat bread (I like the Greek Pita Flat Bread)
-Brianas Asiago Caesar Dressing (This is a MUST)
-Spinach
-Artichoke hearts
-Pepperoncinis 
-Sun dried tomatoes
-Black olives
-Chicken
-Feta cheese
-Red onion
-Pepper jack cheese
-Italian seasoning

Instructions:
Set oven on Broil at 450*. Place flat bread on a cooking sheet. Put about 1-2 TBL (depending on how much you like) of Caesar dressing on flat bread and add all the toppings! After toppings are added, sprinkle some Italian Seasoning on top. (FYI I always put spinach on after the dressing, then pile everything on top.) My flat bread is always different depending on the ingredients we have, but any variation of these ingredients is AMAZING! Broil for about 2 mins. or until cheese has melted and fold it up and enjoy!
