Veggy Burrito


Mission Carb Balance Tortilla, or another brand with a similar ratio of 5g. protein and 7 g. carbs, 110 calories
1/2 c. Assorted Cooked vegetables (look for ones low in carbs and high in fiber such as broccoli and Cauliflower)
1 oz. grated Low-fat Mozzarella Cheese ( it is possible to find as low as 1 and 1/2g. fat in a string cheese)
Salsa

The Mission tortilla gives some great possibilites for balancing proteins and carbs without meat. I calculated my cauliflower burrito as 10g. carbs and 14g. protein, which leaves some room to add a more variety of vegetables or a sweeter sauce such as mango salsa.

Thanks Sandra, for your great food idea
