Vegetable and Apple Wrap (Tacos)

Recipes‎ > ‎

We used vegetables and apples to make a healthy mock taco!

Ingredients

1 head of lettuce

I cucumber

1 bag of baby carrots

1 stalk of celery

3 apples

1 bottle of low fat Caesar dressing (not creamy)

Directions

Wash the apples and vegetables
Cut the carrots, celery, cucumbers, and apples into small pieces
Mix the cucumber, celery, and apples in a bowl with the dressing
Place a scoop of the mixture on a piece of lettuce
Add the carrots on top to look like cheese
Warp the lettuce up
Enjoy :)

~Hints and Tips~

(From: Li-Li)

- Use the lite Ceasar instead of the creamy ones, the taste is almost the same and the kids still seem to like it

- The kids really liked the baby carrots, which means that you may need more than how much we have listed

- If some of the leaves are TOO big just break them in half horizontally

- this snack usually has a lot of things that could fall off on the sides (just like a real taco :D) so just gently remind kids to pick up after themselves

1. I liked it, but the part i didn't like is the apples because it's called a veggie wrap and apples are not veggies! I really loved the cucumbers! I REALLLLLLY love cucumber!
2. It reminds of the, it I went to the zoo, and there was a bunch of berries and leaves it would look just like that.
3. (she could recall how to make it... vaguely) I would make it at home, but I wouldn't add the apples. I would just do it myself.
