Fresh Cheese and Tomato Wrap (Low-Calorie)
A light Italian-style wrap built on a whole-wheat tortilla and filled with part-skim ricotta, tomato, arugula and basil. Fresh cheese is spread thin, tomatoes are lightly salted to draw out excess water, and extra-virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar finish the roll. Served cold, no cooking required.
