Cream cheese, chicken wrap
My hair appointment yesterday ran late. Way late… The result of this was that the grocery store was closed by the time I had the chance to pass by. Now I did have dinner material in my fridge, but no breakfast. I usually go for a sweet or savory bread or roll on saturday. Maybe I’ll roll my own croissants, maybe I’ll pop a half-baked focaccia in the oven, something like that.
After sleeping in pretty late this morning (I guess I needed the sleep!) I woke up with a growling tummy. It wanted food. Trying to come up with things to make, I quickly figured that everything was going to take at LEAST half an hour to make. Probably even longer as I much prefer yeasted breads and rolls. Browsing through the little remains in my fridge (Saturday or Sunday is usually ‘shopping-for-the-week-day’) I found some flour tortilla’s that were still nice and soft and some cream cheese.
When I still worked in an office far-far away from any bakers, grocers or cafe’s, I regularly brought my own lunch. The in-house-cafeteria wasn’t terribly, but it generally resulted in the same food every day. It inspired me to buy a bento box and combine my own meals a couple of times a week. Something that regularly appeared in my little bento box, was wraps. Basicaly leftover tortilla’s from the previous night’s meal with whatever I could find and wouldn’t go bad in the few hours before lunchtime rolled up and sliced. I actually inspired a lot of co-workers to make those for their own lunches or brunches.
So this morning, with a growling stomach, I saw the tortilla’s and remembered. There was still some cream cheese, I found some thin-sliced chicken that had it’s expiration day yesterday (I once heard that by law they need to put an expiration date on things that’s at least 2 days before it’ll actually go bad). Sure enough breakfast, or brunch, was coming together. Some tomato, pepper and salt and a wonderful, simple dish was done. Then I recalled the pesto, desperately waiting to be used and figured that’d be great with the chicken and tomato, so I added a couple of dollops of that. And presto, food was ready. It tasted wonderful!
Brunch wraps
- Flour tortilla’s (1 per person)
- Cream cheese
- Pepper
- Salt
- Fish meat, chicken
- Vegetable(s)
- any condiment you like
Lay our 1 flour tortilla per person eating (or 1 per 2 people if you add this to a multi-dish lunch). Smear a thin layer of cream cheese over the entire tortilla. Add thin sliced chicken, meat or fish over the entire tortilla, maybe some regular or grated cheese too if you have it and it goes well with the rest of the dish. Add vegetables such as lettuce and/or tomato (or peppers or whatever you like) to 3 quarters of the tortilla (leave one strip on the side empty of that, for rolling and sticking purposes). Add some pepper, salt and condiments to taste. Roll up, starting at the side with vegetables, cut into 4 pieces (lay the seal on the bottom so it won’t open itself up) and serve.
