RECIPE & IDEAS: NUT BUTTER, BANANA, GRANOLA WRAP..Quick and healthier "meal on the go"



These are made with whole wheat flour tortillas, but feel free to use any and even gluten-free wraps.

The filling is up to you, and can be completely varied depending on  availabilty of seasonal berries, and nut butters.



Basic idea:

These are best warmed in a toaster oven to crisp up the wrap and melt the nut butter.

makes 2 wraps

4 tbsp nut butter

2 whole wheat flour tortillas
4tbsp any granola or muesli
2  ripe bananas
ground cinnamon/cloves/allspice/ginger
2tbsp raisins or chopped  pitted prunes, dates, apricots (chop large dried fruit with kitchen scissors)
2 tsp agave nectar or maple syrup (for non-vegan you may use honey)






Spread 1/2 the nut butter over the top of each tortilla.

Lay either a whole banana down center of wrap ( great for lunchbox meals). or thinly sliced.

Top with half the granola and sprinkle with spice, half the dried fruit and agave nectar.


Roll edge to edge and warm in a preheated toaster oven 350F for about 10-15 mins.

variations: 
try with:
mashed ripe berries, chocolate chips, raw cacao nibs, chopped pineapple and macadamia nuts, Nutella with bananas or berries is also wonderful ( although not vegan as it contains milk powder).


The ideas are endless...now you have no excuse not to have breakfast, and eat healthier.. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
