‘Sand’wiches for the Beach

70iCB7D34D88D75B984I’m on vacation this week visiting family and enjoying the sun and surf, and we’ve been packing lunch to bring to the beach. Growing up, my family always ate “sand sandwiches” because that is inevitably what happens when you try to eat a sandwich at the beach, especially with little kids. But no more–now I make wraps! They’re easy, delicious, versatile and–most importantly–a sand-free sandwich option when rolled in foil. Simply rip off the top half of the foil and use the wrapped bottom as a holder. Try plain or flavored tortillas, flatbread or lavosh as the wrap, and opt for whole-grain varieties if available. Fillings can be anything from dinner leftovers to salads to deli meats and cheese and more. Get creative! Here are some of my favorites:

 

  • PBJB Wrap: crunchy peanut butter, low-sugar strawberry jam and sliced banana.
  • Mexican Wrap:  black beans, rice, salsa, avocado, romaine lettuce and a sprinkle of Lucerne® 2% Milk Reduced Fat Shredded Mexican Cheese.
  • Indian Wrap:  leftover curried chicken, rice, peas and orange marmalade.
  • Veggie Wrap:  grilled marinated peppers, zucchini and eggplant, baby spinach leaves and hummus.
  • Steak Wrap:  thinly sliced leftover flank steak, sweet onions, tomato, romaine lettuce, jarred roasted red pepper strips and a sprinkle of blue cheese.
  • Turkey Wrap:  honey mustard, turkey breast, Swiss cheese, baby spinach and tomatoes.

 

What are some of your favorite wrap recipes – for the beach, park, picnic or a desktop lunch?
