Written by COA Nutrition Team On April 15, 2022

If you think your kids won’t eat anything green- start with these! You will likely be surprised. Kids like these wraps from the beginning because we use veggies that aren’t too bitter and are usually acceptable to even picky eaters!

INGREDIENTS

4 medium tortilla, whole wheat
2 tablespoon cream cheese, low fat
1 medium carrot
1 medium cucumber
1 cup lettuce, shredded

DIRECTIONS

Spread 1/2 tablespoon cream cheese on each tortilla.
Grate carrot and sprinkle on each tortilla.
Slice cucumber super thin, using a veggie peeler or mandolin. Arrange cucumber slices on tortilla.
Finally, shred the lettuce and divide among each tortilla. Wrap up tightly.
Cover each wrap with plastic wrap and keep in the fridge to chill and hold its shape. Grill before serving, if desired.

Yes, you should get an air fryer!

There are a lot of questions popping out when it comes to this latest kitchen craze. Is it worth buying an air fryer? Here are some reasons why we think so: • Easy to clean • Easy to use • Safe to use • Healthier meals • Doesn’t take up much space • Faster Than Oven Cooking An air fryer is an incredibly easy way to cook just about anything. You place the food in a fryer-style basket and hot air rapidly circulates all around the food, making the food crisp – much like deep-frying, but without the oil. You can cook anything you’d make in the oven. So, yes, DO IT!
