TIPS AND IDEAS FROM THE KITCHEN OF CATHY: MEDITERRANEAN WRAP

Today I am sharing with you my version of the oh so popular Mediterranean Wrap. A quick, easy to make, healthy, and budget conscious meal or snack your family will love!

INGREDIENTS:

• Large Wraps
• Hummus
• Feta Cheese
• Italian Style Salad Dressing 
• French's Fried Onions
• Shredded Lettuce
• Diced Tomatoes
• Cubed Cucumber
• Olives (optional)

This wrap couldn't be any easier!

In a bowl mix together the lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, feta cheese, and salad dressing (go light on the salad dressing so wrap isn't soggy) Spoon hummus onto the wrap. Add the mixed ingredients. Top with fried onions. 

It's a wrap! Mediterranean Wrap that is. 

This is a favourite evening snack and lunch option for my teens! 

Please let me know how you liked it in the comments section. I would love your feedback.

Yep, just me Cathy thinking out loud about Mediterranean Wraps.

Fast and Easy 3 Ingredient Tartar Sauce #Recipe #foodhack

Fastest and Easiest Tartar Sauce Ever!

As easy as 1, 2, 3 ingredients!

TIP: A mason jar is perfect to make 
and store your Tartar Sauce in.

This is to taste, but I like these proportions:

1 part Mayonnaise 

2 parts Sweet Green Relish

a squeeze of lemon juice or a 1/2 tsp of the liquid from your jar of pickles.

VOILA! DONE!



Now just add your favourite fish.

IT'S SO EASY TO BE #GREEN - SMALL CHANGES THAT BRING ABOUT BIG RESULTS

Everyday small changes can bring about BIG results. Take for instance if you used inexpensive mess bags for your produce instead the plastic bags you get at the grocery store. Assuming that you purchase 5 types of produce a week, that is 5 bags x 52 weeks = 260 plastic bags that will NOT end up in landfill! Now multiple that by each person or family in Canada! Small changes bringing about BIG results!

• These mess bags are light weight so don't add weight or increase the cost of your produce.
• They are see through so cashier can see the produce and UPC codes.
• They are washable since they are laundry bags. You can use them to wash and store your produce in.
• They can be purchased inexpensively at a dollar store - 2 for $1.00.

But it doesn't stop there. Every time I use these bags someone in line or the cashier comments on what a great idea that is, thinks about doing the same thing, and the impact is multiplied! 

So the question now is What are you waiting for? and How many friends and family are you going to share this idea with, so together we can make small changes that have BIG results?
