I am on hunt for healthy meals and creating healthy life style for my family. It is huge challenge for me. Growing up in Ukrainian family that eats potatoes for breakfast, lunch and dinner with whole lot of pork just makes things much worst. If you have been following my journey you can tell that I have weakness with carbs. Well honestly I felt like all wraps should be done this way and I don’t need any carbs in my wrap. I loved it; it tasted fresh, crispy, healthy and very yummy.
