Veggie Wraps

While I would like to categorize these as 'healthy', most health nuts would probably strongly disagree with me. Sure there's carrots and broccoli.....mixed into a whole container of cream cheese! I love cream cheese. You could smear a big 'ol glob of cream cheese onto an old shoe and I'd devour it happily for breakfast.

There is such a thing though as to much cream cheese though...and these wraps were pretty much there. The original recipe that I followed called for only 1/4 cup of chopped broccoli and carrots. I'm upping that to 1/3 cup. You could add even more than that if you want. Don't get me wrong, these were really good, and definitely something that I'd make again, but adding more veggies certainly wouldn't hurt.

You could also use fat-free cream cheese...I'm sure that would help with those looking to make this a bit healthier. Personally I've never tried fat-free cream cheese, so I have no idea how it would affect the taste, but it's probably not that big a difference.

This is another one of those recipes that's great for either a quick lunch idea, or for appetizers. Cut them into bite-sized pieces, add a toothpick and BAM! Instant finger food!
