Recipe: Chicken Veggie Wrap


I have been been slightly sick of my usual meals that I make each week. So yesterday I gathered up some fresh ingredients and came up with a great wrap recipe. It tastes super fresh and is perfect for summer. Let me know if you make this yourself, OR let me know your favorite ingredients for wraps.


What you will need: tortillas sliced chicken breasts shredded carrots romaine lettuce sliced cucumber red onion gorgonzola cheese (feta would taste great too) hummus cilantro dressing (mine is from Trader Joe’s) t 1. First, spread the hummus onto a tortilla. 2. Add the grilled chicken and cheese. I sliced my chicken into strips then cooked it in a pan with coconut oil until it was started to brown a little. I like putting the cheese on top of the warm chicken so it melts slightly. 3. Cut up all your veggies and throw them in a bowl. 4. Mix in cilantro dressing. You could also use olive oil and apple cider vinegar, or another light dressing you have on hand. g Place some veggies on top and enjoy!


Pineapple + Parsley Smoothie


I have been obsessed with this smoothie lately. If you have a Robeks near you, they have a seasonal smoothie out called Sweet Sunshine. I looked up what exactly is in it and have created it myself! It is really sweet but the parsley adds a great kick! Parsley is packed with nutrients and this is a great way to make it taste wonderful! I purchased all the ingredients at Trader Joes, expect the spirulina is from Vitacost (here is $10 off towards your order).

I use a vitamix.

What you will need (i just eyeball everything):

1 cup apple juice

1 cup frozen pineapple

1/2 cup vanilla yogurt

about 6 green grapes

2 sprigs of parsley (this is the gem of the whole thing)

1 tsp spirulina
