Spring Wraps

As the weather warms up, I'm a fan of lighter fare. One of my favorite things to eat is a melted cheddar and a nice tart apple, like a juicy granny smith. This actually ends up making a pretty tasty wrap. Sometimes I switch up the cheese (brie!) or add in a little prosciutto or grilled chicken to get a little bit more protein.

1/2 med/large granny smith apple, cut into slices

a few slices of cheese, such as sharp cheddar or brie

Place cheese on tortilla, microwave until cheese is melted, top with apples and roll it up. Enjoy!

Note: the awesome pears that have come through the grocery lately make a really nice substitution, especially with goat cheese. In this case I would microwave the tortilla first (maybe 20 seconds, just until soft/pliable), smear on the goat cheese and top with the pear slices. If you have some walnuts and honey handy, you can drizzle a bit of honey on there and throw a few walnuts in.

Another yummy variation, and perhaps one that is a bit more seasonally appropriate, is a cucumber and hummus wrap. I am huge fan of the Wild Thyme Commissary black olive hummus. The cumin in it is really nice.

Microwave the tortilla 20 seconds or so until soft, smear on the humus, top with cucumber, roll up, etc.
