flat out wraps save the day!

Hello Bloggies!

I have been reading tons of food blogs now for about 6 months and decided it was time that I myself take the “plunge”. I am mostly going to use my blog to show you guys my eats while being a full time student, working part time at a Pilates studio after school and finding time to run and do Pilates! I hope you enjoy. So I actually just returned yesterday from a weekend away in the most beautiful place ever!! (more on that later) When we got home (ROAD TRIP) I had about 45 minutes to make something to eat as I was quite hungry and KNEW that working for four hours while being exhausted would make me ravenous!

So, on the drive home I snacked on a spinach flavor Flat Out Wrap, plain (can you tell i was getting hungry….?) ;)

Well soon enough we arrived home and because I was SO hangry I grabbed one of my trail mix cookies I made last week to tide me over while I chopped my veggies!

Then it was looking in my fridge for something…anything! Well, I found half of an onion, part of a rotting zucchini (in a Debbie Meyer Green Bag, I thought these would help!), some celery (also on it’s last leg) as well as some hummus and feta. Well I got to chopping and decided the hummus would make a great base for a flat out wrap pizza! Especially because my wrap flavor of spinach. I decided on a Greek theme for today’s pre-work meal.
Layer 1: about 2 tablespoons of hummus. (Oh, and i decided to just do half of a pizza b/c i ate all the wrap coming home and didn’t want to get burned out when this is one of the only things left in my kitchen!)

Then I added the veggies and spices! (zucchini, onion, red pepper flakes, basil, thyme, garlic powder, and Mediterranean sea salt! I am all out of oregano and this saved the day!) Oh and feta cheese of course, about 2 tablespoons. After being in the oven for about 10 minutes, and then 10 min again because my Feta wouldn’t brown:( I got this…

Celery, a huge tomato and hummus for dipping!

Like my zucchini “pepperoni’s?” okay maybe a stretch…. Anyway, this was very good AND filling, I knew i wouldn’t be getting hungry at work! The only problem was the hummus got so slippery and gooey that the tortilla wasn’t very firm or pizza-ish like it normally is with cheese. Next time I think I would toast the wrap in the oven first to firm it up a tiny bit then add all the toppings. Thoughts??

Okay I will be back later to share with you my post work dinner (8:30pm!!) and stay tuned for my amazing eats and adventures from this last weekend in that oh so beautiful place!

Love,
MVFK

hmm…maybe I need a new nickname, MVFK doesn’t work as well as all of your abbreviated names out there :( Oh well! “see” you soon!!
