Chicken Caesar Wrap

This is one of my favorite Body For Life super fast summer meals. For added kick I slice up tomatoes and throw them in too!

Serves 2

Prep time: 10 min

2 portions of grilled chicken breast, sliced (to save boatloads of time buy the "pre-grilled" fully cooked strips at the store)

2 cups chopped romaine lettuce

2 Tablespoons low-fat Caesar salad dressing (or not low-fat)

2 Tablespoons reduced-fat Parmesan cheese

spinach tortillas

1. Toss together the chicken, lettuce, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese and tomatoes (if desired)

2. Microwave tortilla for about 20 seconds to soften. Spoon chicken mixture onto tortilla

3. Wrap tortilla around filling and cut in half. Serve and enjoy!

Mom's Zucchini Bread aka. The Secret Recipe

Patty passed this on to me a couple of years ago and I just made it again today. I still think mom's recipe is one of the best.


3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
3 eggs well beaten
1 cup shortening or cooking oil (I've always used olive oil)
3 cups zucchini, grated
1 teaspoon vanilla


Sift dry ingredients in medium bowl. Mix eggs, shortening (oil), zucchini and vanilla together. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix well. Pour into two loaf pans. Bake at 325 for about 1 hour for large loaves. For mini loaves check after 20 minutes. I'm sure they'd make good cupcakes too. Same bake time as mini loaves, check after 15 to 20 minutes
