It's a Wrap!

Another simple meal tonight. I brushed a third of a whole wheat lavash with cream garlic salad dressing and topped it with chopped romaine, sliced red onions, and grated carrots. Then I added some grilled chicken breast slices and rolled it up. Easy, balanced, healthy, and not too shabby in the taste department either. Some yogurt sauce would have made it perfect.

I always forget how nice it is to have a few sliced up grilled chicken breasts in a container. It's the perfect quick topping for a salad, pasta, soup, or rice dish. Having it around actually makes me eat less meat because I know I won't need to cook up a whole meat dish to get some lean protein.

My usual M.O. for a chicken breast is to pound it to about half an inch thick, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and sear for about three minutes a side on medium high heat in a lightly oiled pan. Cool, slice, and put in a plastic container to use for the week.
