Wrap Up for Healthy Flavor

I loves me some wraps. Any meal of the day the colorful, compact ease of stuffing a leafy green or whole grain flatbread with a variety of health-promoting tasty foods brings a smile to the table.

Here's today's lunch, Catch a Collard, not a cold.

1 bunch finely chopped collard greens, uncooked.

1/2 cup shredded red cabbage

2 shredded carrots

1 diced mango

1 finely chopped jalapeno, seeds removed

2 tbsp organic peanut butter

2 tbsp lime juice

2 tbsp fresh orange juice

2 tbsp chopped cilantro

1 tbsp chili powder

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

Mix all in a medium bowl.

Put 1/2 cup in your choice of whole grain tortilla or wrap, or roll in green lettuce or romaine leaves.

4 servings.

As one draws nearer, the heated air loses some of its refractive quality. The reflected reds, oranges, yellows, browns, and greens press against the light-sensing cells in the back of the eye, and one feels drawn out of the present and into a timeless moment where the immensity of what nature has created quickens the pulse and draws the breath out in shallow, anticipatory pulses. By the time the narrow highway twists through the slalom of these sacred stones, so that the enormity of their bulk fills the eyes and mind, all sensation of other life vanishes into the stillness...
