just made this for lunch on a ww tortilla, it was yummy! thanks for the recipe! -
I love the cruch the apple gives to the wrap. A quick and delicious lunch. Thanks for sharing, Cathleen! -
These wraps were delicious!! I made them on a family camping trip last summer. My DH and my dad were very skeptical about the apples, but both gave rave reviews. I used prepared honey mustard instead of mayo and mustard, and for ham slices bought a small pre-cooked spiral-cut ham. I didn't bother with the lemon juice on the apples and had my family create their own wraps from dishes of ingredients. Deli-quality sharp cheddar cheese slices really made them. -
Dynamite sandwich. Why have I never tried apple slices on a sandwich? Sooo good! We had this a second time with tuna salad spread and that was equally as good. There's so much flavor in this sandwich you won't notice that most of the ingredients are lowfat and fat free. We're going to have this often. Thanks, Cathleen.

Strangely enough, I've become a better cook to lose weight. I joined eDiets and lost 100 pounds. Now I'm on the look out for tasty recipes that are easy to fix (I teach and often don't get home until after 5PM).
In addition to my kitchen, my favorite place is my garden. I have a combination flower/herb/veggie garden and love to grow a variety of vintage or unusual plants.
Because I teach I actually DO get a month off. I get up early to garden, sleep the hot afternoons away, then cook, read and watch movies.
My favorite cookbooks are Crazy Plates and Looneyspoons. They are full of delicious, lowfat recipes with tons of trivia and humor.
I teach science in a converted home ec kitchen. I love to use food as a teaching tool - making cheese to teach enzyme action, pickles to teach osmosis and diffusion, fudge to demonstrate igneous rock formation.
I love kitchen gadgets, KitchenAid, Le Creuset cookware and my cats.
