It's like eating a book

I really like the idea of wraps, burritos etc as it's a quick and easy option for some good healthy and delicious fillings. However all the wraps and suchlike I've tried are like eating a book - does anyone have any suggestions for some more enjoyable ones?

I thought the thread might be about Alphabetti Spaghetti. Which used to keep my lot concentrating on their lunch while looking for the letters in their names.

I find it a good way to eat salad. Makes it more filling and it makes me chew my food more ( a la Nuts in May). I mix lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber,grated cheese and carrot with mayonnaise and add tuna or chicken. I must admit I had one last week (M&S) and the wrap did taste like raw pastry so I think it’s down to where you buy them from. They are very high fat, though, so not the healthiest thing to eat.

I like wraps and I also like sandwiches. A different eating experience with each. smile

Paninis, filled with whatever you like and toasted in a panini press, are much tastier than wraps.

I’ve decided I don’t have to like wraps, I don’t like the flavours or the dry sticky feel. Give me a well made sandwich on good bread any day

But it has to be proper bread, not the stuff supermarkets sell.
