The Ultimate Tortilla Roll-Up

Makes 1

Whole wheat flour tortilla (*health food stores have a sprouted wheat tortilla that is delicious)
1/2 ounce low-fat cream cheese, you can use less
1 ounce chicken breast without skin, tuna, or whatever you have on hand
2 slices tomato, chopped
1 romaine lettuce leaf, shredded
1 green onion, minced fine (optional)
1 teaspoon vinaigrette, whatever you have on hand

Lay tortilla flat and spread cream cheese all over. In a small bowl, toss lettuce, tomato and optional green onion with vinaigrette. Set aside.

Lay chicken out evenly over cream cheese. Spread lettuce mixture evenly on top of the chicken.

Roll up like you would a sleeping bag and secure with a toothpick or just place on a plate, seam side down. If this is for a lunch box, wrap securely with plastic wrap.
