CHEW THE RIGHT THING
BITE IT!
HG's Super-Stuffed Thanksgiving Wrap
Let's Talk Turkey!
A holiday-themed, hand-held meal, complete with corn stuffing you can
make in the microwave?! Yup...
Ingredients:
For Corn Stuffing
1 1/2 tbsp. yellow cornmeal
1 tbsp. fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)
1 tbsp. chopped jarred roasted red peppers
1 tsp. reduced-fat Parmesan-style grated topping
1/2 no-calorie sweetener packet (like Splenda)
Optional: 1 jarred jalapeno slice, chopped
For Wrap
1 La Tortilla Factory Smart & Delicious Low Carb High Fiber Large Tortilla (or
alternative below)
1 tbsp. light blue cheese dressing with about 25 calories per tbsp. (like the
one by Wish-Bone)
5 mandarin orange segments packed in juice, drained and chopped
1 tbsp. dried cranberries
3 oz. cooked skinless lean turkey breast, chopped
1/4 cup chopped romaine lettuce
Directions:
Combine all ingredients for the stuffing in a microwave-safe bowl sprayed
with nonstick spray, and stir until thoroughly mixed. Microwave for 30
seconds. Use a fork to break up the mixture. If needed, microwave for
another 15 seconds, until no longer liquid-y. Set aside to cool.
Lay tortilla on a plate and warm in the microwave for 10 - 15 seconds.
Spread dressing onto the tortilla, and sprinkle chopped orange segments and
dried cranberries down the center of the tortilla. Top with turkey, stuffing,
and lettuce.
Wrap tortilla up tightly like a burrito, folding the sides in first, and then rolling
it up from the bottom. (Or serve it wrap-style, with one end left open.)
Note: This thing will be SUPER-STUFFED. (It IS a Thanksgiving wrap, after
all.) Now eat up, turkey!

HG Alternative! If you can't locate those 80-calorie tortillas made by La
Tortilla Factory, use any low-fat, high-fiber, burrito-size tortilla with about
110 calories. Then your wrap will have about 356 calories and a POINTS®
value of 7*.
FIGHT IT!
Au Bon Pain's Holiday Turkey Wrap
Thanks for Nothing...
It's pretty easy to get sucked into the holiday spirit and find yourself eager
to gobble up anything with the word "pumpkin," "spice," or "holiday" in its
name. And at first glance, this Holiday Turkey Wrap from Au Bon Pain looks
like a safe bet. Don't fall for it, people! This wrap is stuffed with more than
just turkey -- it's also got a fair amount of blue cheese dressing, cranberry
sauce, and hunks of CORN MUFFIN inside. WHOA! No wonder it has as many
calories as a Quarter Pounder with Cheese and small order of fries from
McDonald's! But the more we think about it, the more this crazy concoction
sounds really DELICIOUS. So like many times before, we've decided to do it
ourselves. NO PROBLEM. We have extra turkey on hand. Plus, there's no Au
Bon Pain near us! (It's probably safer that way.) So bookmark this recipe,
and then wrap up some holiday leftovers after your feast on Thursday!
