Hello.  I’m enclosing a recipe from a previous post I made on a social network group.  This was lunch the kiddos and I had one Saturday afternoon and I wanted to share with all my readers.  It’s a simple three meat wrap with a twist on your traditional mayonnaise.  Often times we tend to stay with the norm and with that we tend to eat the same things over and over again.

If you simply change up the mayonnaise or mustard, or any kind of dressing you add to your sandwiches or wraps that’ll make all the difference in the world.  You’re not just eating that same boring sandwich or wrap, you’ve completely changed its taste, appearance, and overall flavor with a little creativity.


Three Meat Wrap w/Spicy Cilantro Mayonnaise

Ingredients
1 slice pastrami
1 slice cajun style turkey breast
2 slices hard salami
1 slice havarti cheese
2 medium leaves curly lettuce
2-3 rings yellow onion
4 small wedges roman tomatoes
1 large flour tortilla

Ingredients (dressing)
2 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tsp cilantro (chopped fine)
2 tsp garlic vinegar
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

Instructions

In the ingredients list above I specified three different types of meat you’re welcome to use for this wrap.  By all means if you have your own favorite meat combo you’d rather use or even strictly vegetarian its completely up to you.  With that said on to the dressing.

Combine mayonnaise, (your favorite) chopped cilantro, garlic vinegar and cayenne pepper in a small bowl.  If you don’t have garlic vinegar already prepared the simplest thing to do would be to add garlic to a bottle of white or apple cider vinegar and allow it to sit for 24 hours at room temp in the refrigerator.

Spread a generous amount of the dressing onto the tortilla.  Add each piece of meat or veggies whatever your preference maybe.  Next add cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and onions.  Wrap, eat and enjoy! Have an awesome week!

Ingredients
1 box (small) banana cream pudding
1 box (small) chocolate pudding
4 cups cold milk (2% or whole (2 cups for each box))
4 bananas (peeled & sliced)
18-24 chocolate chip cream sandwich cookies (reserve at least 4)
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips morsels

Instructions
In a medium size mixing bowl add the pudding powder from both boxes.  Mix together all 4 cups of milk according to the instructions on the box with either a wire whisk or hand mixer.  Once pudding has come to the right consistency set aside to prepare the banana and cookies.

Using a cutting board or what ever you fill comfortable using.  Peel and cut each banana into slices approx. 1/2 in or so and set aside.  In a medium serving bowl add a layer of the pudding mixture to the bottom of the bowl alternating pudding, bananas, cookies and chocolate chips.  For this particular dish I separated each cookie sandwich and alternated the cookie layer with one side of the cookie down and the other side up.  You can choose to layer them whole or as stated above.

With the remaining 4 cookies you reserved earlier, place these in a plastic zip lock bag and crush until cookies become a crumbly topping.  Sprinkle cookie crumbles over the top as the finial step.  Chill or eat right away.  I’m not sure why but when chocolate and bananas are served together it’s more than delicious.  Enjoy!
