It's been recommended that you try to eat a rainbow of foods every day, as each color contains powerful nutrients our bodies need to function at optimal levels. This wrap is a fun, colorful way to incorporate lots of your veggie servings for the day and also a sure way that you're getting at least a little bit of every color! I have one for lunch every day! Substitute turkey or a salmon filet...any lean protein you want for the middle if it gets boring! (*note- the amounts are all up to you- I like my tortilla absolutely BURSTING with veggies that fall out onto the plate, so when I'm done with the wrap there's always a little bit of the yummy insides to finish up, but I know some people like a little less- do what works for YOU!

Ingredients

  • 1 - whole wheat or multi-grain tortilla

  • 1/4 - 1/2 - orange bell pepper

How To Make rainbow salad wrap

  • Step 1
    Prepare tuna. (I like to do a couple of cans in a re-sealable container so it's ready for the next day(s) too! I like to make it with olive oil, lemon and pepper.
  • Step 2
    Slice peppers into thin strips (also, if you don't like how it all sticks out, try dicing up the peppers and mixing in with the tuna!)
  • Step 3
    Quarter grape tomatoes and slice up carrot however you want it.
  • Step 4
    Place all ingredients (except blueberries and grapes) on middle of tortilla... the order I usually do (not a mandatory thing) is: a big ol' handful (or two) of spinach, then the tuna, peppers, dressing on top of that, and finish with tomatoes and carrots.
  • Step 5
    Mix blueberries and grapes in small dish and enjoy on the side of your filling, vitamin-packed wrap~ Voila~ a rainbow lunch to enjoy!!
