I love this new “way of eating” we are on. Seriously, I could go on and on about what we’re eating and how much I’m NOT missing carb-filled foods. Our meals are easier, they are way more delicious, and dare I say a bit more budget friendly? We eat so much meat and cheese, so we’ve been doing lots of taste testing and time and time again, Sargento® Slices rank number 1!
Since the kids are not eating this way, I like to keep meals pretty simple so making up these lettuce wrapped sandwiches are easy and customizable for what we like. Go heavy on the meat, light on the cheese, heavy on the cheese and light on the meat, whatever you want! Depending on your plan for the day, you can enjoy a few roll ups (or wraps, whatever you want to call them) since there’s no bread or tortilla totally that carb count up!
