Confetti Wraps

(Gout-friendly)

Ingredients

  • 1 ounce ham (about 2 or 3 slices of deli-cut ham)

  • 1 ounce turkey (about 2 or 3 slices of deli-cut turkey)

  • 1 ounce Swiss cheese (about 2 slices of deli-cut cheese)

  • 1 hard-cooked egg, chopped

  • 4 leaves of romaine lettuce, finely shredded (about 1 cup)

  • 1/4 cup finely chopped yellow bell pepper

  • 1/4 cup minced red onion

  • 1/4 cup peeled, seeded and finely chopped cucumber

  • 1 tomato, seeds removed, chopped

  • 1 small carrot, grated

  • 2 tbsp reduced-calorie Thousand Island dressing

  • 2 large, colorful sun-dried tomato wraps

Directions

Tightly roll ham slices and cut into thin strips. Do the same with turkey and Swiss cheese. Toss with vegetables that have been chopped and shredded. Your mix should look like confetti and be almost moist enough to enjoy without dressing.

Pack it to go in a plastic bowl. Take tortilla wraps and dressing on the side. Assemble when you're ready to eat. Put a tablespoon of dressing on a large tortilla wrap and mound "confetti" on top. Roll and enjoy.
