Flat bread, tortillas or even pancakes from your grocery chain spares you a lot of work and time.

Use your microwave and not the oven for your wraps. Whatever you use, flat bread, tortillas or pancakes, your final wrap should be soft. This preparation avoids high dry heat from oven and eliminates acrylamide and oxidation products. You will love the test of your healthy wrap.

Chicken or minced meat are good for the recipe. However, if you want to go vegie, discard the meat and use 200 g frozen vegetables instead. The vegetables cook well in the microwave. Don't forget to soak the bread before microwaving.

Remember: Add no fat, oil, margarine or sauces. Fat and oil cracks your calorie counter.
