EASY SOUTHWESTERN VEGGIE WRAPS



Easy Southwestern Veggie Wraps image

I developed this recipe when corn was in the farmer's market and big, red, juicy tomatoes were in my garden. To make this wrap light and healthy, I use fat-free sour cream, whole grain tortillas and brown rice. Although it's vegetarian by nature, change it up with a large chicken breast, diced small. -Cindy Beberman, Orland Park, Illinois
