Friday Food and Favorites: Carb Free Salad Wraps and Other Fabulous Things

Friday, July 20, 2012

Happy Friday! The summer seems to be flying by and I'm trying to hold on to all of its dripping wet, sticky glory. The weather has been HOT and that means light fare is the way to go when it comes to healthy eating. So many people I know are trying to lose a few lbs. and no one wants to be stuck cooking in a hot kitchen. So today I'm featuring some glorious and gorgeous carb free salad wraps which not only taste delicious but are also easy on the eye. And that's really important when you're on a diet and you may not be getting your full sensory fill from food.

Take a look at these great veggie wraps that make eating salad fun and far from boring:

Wrap #1 Chop up mushrooms, asparagus and tomatoes and fill lettuce cups with cut up vegetables.  Crumble feta cheese to top.
Wrap #2 Lay out lettuce leaves, fill with shredded cabbage, carrots, cut up avocado and cucumbers. Roll tightly in wax paper and slice with a sharp knife.

Wrap #3 Prepare tuna salad as desired. Fill whole romaine leaves with the tuna salad and sprinkle with diced cherry tomatoes and scallions.
Drizzle your favorite low cal dressing on any of these wraps. My favorite is a combination of olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, sea salt, and ground pepper.

Now are you ready for some of my fabulous Friday (summer) favorites?

#1 A light filled glamorous work space I can call my own:

    Lovely lady, need to make at least a vignette corner for your inspiration space. You deserve it.
