Just got a bunch of tomatoes and cukes from my mom's garden... About This Page:

But they're all really ripe and won't last but a few days! Walt's picking up some goodies on his way home from work for me to make veggie wraps all weekend.

Veggie Wraps:
1 large sundried-tomato sandwich wrap
2 T cream cheese blended with pureed roasted red peppers
a few leaves of leafy green lettuce
3 slices of tomato
2 cucumber sticks
2 carrot sticks or yellow bell pepper strips
1/4 avocado, sliced
a handful of alfalfa sprouts

Green Wraps:
1 large spinach sandwich wrap
2 - 3 T cream cheese
a few leaves of leafy green lettuce
6 cucumber sticks
1/4 avocado, sliced
a handful of alfalfa sprouts

For Walt, I sometimes add a slice or two of ham, turkey, pepperoni, or salami. Oh, and don't forget a handful of cherry tomatoes and baby carrots on the side with a cup of applesauce. Big bottle of sun tea or pink lemonade to drink with it on a hot day...Hmm...sounds like we're having a picnic tomorrow.

Oh, and Eileen, I'm sure there's someone who makes a gluten-free wrap, so you could cut these into pinwheels and they'd make a great bento addition!

Thanks for the recipes.

By the way, what on earth are cukes?

Great, now I'm starved AND drooling!

Chez--they're cucumbers.

They sound delish!
