Lunch ideas

I tend to do a lot of salads in the summer for lunch due to the heat. I need variety in my life so I switched it up this week with some wraps. The key to a healthy wrap is the wrapper itself. (no not you- the tortilla! hehe ) You can really blow it by choosing a bad tortilla. Ever read the NI on some of those wraps/burritos at the chain places like Chipotle? These are the ones that I like...I prefer the whole grain white version.
The great thing about this idea is that you can add whatever items you want to in these. Make a salad and toss with your favorite dressing, add it to the wrap, fold it up, and eat. Its super easy! Yesterday I looked to see what I could use in mine. I had 2-3 slices of turkey in the fridge left from Panini night. Out came the turkey along with a slice of light swiss cheese. Smeared on 2 tablespoons of hummus, a handful of spinach, tomatoes, salt and pepper. There was lunch for Monday. I actually packed this up to head to my parents house. They make a great traveling lunch!
Today I remembered I had some falafels in the freezer. Ive had these forever due to buying a HUGE box at Costco. They are good- but remember I need variety, so I slowly go through large quantities of stuff like this. Ok this was a delicious lunch today...here are the ingredients:

1 LaTortilla Factory whole grain white wrap
2 tablespoons light sour cream
costco falafels- 2 balls
2 tablespoons diced cucumber
1/4 cup shredded raw beets (yeah my fingers are all stained now!)
1/4 cup shredded carrots
1/2 tomato
6 spinach leaves
2 sprigs of green onion-diced



This was so good! Very filling and very point friendly (5) for all of my WW buddies out there! :) Does anyone else eat differently when it gets warm outside? What are some other lunch ideas that you like? I'd love to hear what everyone likes. :)

Have a great day everyone! :)
