This simple wrap comes together in under 30 minutes and is incredibly healthy, filling, and hearty!
Jason and I used to eat out nearly every day of the week before I became a blogger who stayed at home. It was much easier to eat out than cook at home and then do the dishes afterward. After a while, the cost increased, and I began to gain weight. This blog was created to help me save money while also creating a healthier lifestyle for my entire family.
For September, I have teamed up to support Meal Plan Awareness. We want to show home cooks that they can plan delicious, healthy meals in just 30 minutes. This is faster than eating out for one dinner! It cannot be easy to prepare meals, but with the proper tools and knowledge, you will have all you need to achieve a healthy lifestyle.
