Tuna Tomato Wraps $4.97


While I was riding the exercise bike I found a website with tons and tons of recipes with cream cheese. They ALL looked and sounded amazing. They were creamy and sometimes the creamcheese was flavored with various herbs. Lots of recipes can be done from ingredients from my local convenience store. I had a tsste for tuna tonight, so I went with the cream cheese mixed with diced tomato, dried onion, black pepper. The flavor was great. The combination of tuna and tomato is always great because of the lcyopenes in the tomato and the omega 3's and protein in tunafish. I topped it off with cheddar cheese which provides calcium and more protein.

I loved this wrap.
