Peanut Butter & Apple Wrap

 Peanut Butter! 😍

I am a sucker for REAL peanut butter! When I say the REAL stuff, I mean the REAL DEAL! You know, peanuts ground into peanut butter without all of that extra stuff added. That other peanut butter can find another mouth to enter.

Apples!

My favorite apples are Gala apples. They all have their own flavor. I just love these the best when I eat a raw apple. Give me some Granny Smith apples to make pies any day, but in this case, I'm just eating a raw apple.

So... What's for lunch?

I ran across this tasty, quick, and easy lunch idea the other day. It's so nice to be able to have those lunch ideas that you can through together in a snap! This busy nurse teacher mama needs that in her life!

Without further ado..... 

What you need:

1 small apple of your choice, sliced up

1 multigrain/whole grain wrap (I like to use the Flat Out wraps)

1.5 tablespoons of natural peanut butter (PB2 is a great choice or any all natural peanut butter that doesn't have all of those unneeded ingredients... you just need peanuts and salt 😉

Cinnamon

What you do:

Spread that good ole peanut butter on your wrap, lay the apple slices on top, sprinkle as much cinnamon as you want on top, and then wrap it up! See! Easy peasy!

What else do you need?

You have a fruit serving, a grain serving, and a serving of protein. All you need now is a couple of servings of vegetables to round this fueling up! Pick any 2 servings of vegetables that you like - one serving is usually 1/2 cup. 

I like to eat broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots. I usually do half a serving of broccoli and a half serving of carrots. Then I do a while serving of cauliflower. Broccoli and cauliflower are low glycemic and are great options to eat lots of!

Are you a ranch lover? I love using a yogurt based ranch dressing like the kind that Bolthouse makes. I try to watch my use of condiments. You can easily go crazy with them! I usually just use 1 tablespoon over my veggies and it is plenty. This ranch is VERY tasty! I think it's just as good as the mayo based one - even the home made kind. That's really saying something! 

Enjoy!!
