Hungry Girl's BLC Wraps

Hey guys!

It's been a bit since we've featured one of Hungry Girl's awesome recipes. Ma felt it was time to shine the spotlight once again on Mrs. Hungry Girl. So tonight we're going with something super simple, low in points, and vegetarian for our vegetarian friends out there (hi, Judi!). These are actually pretty crafty. Wanna know more?

Here's what you'll need:

Hungry Girl's BLC Wraps

Ingredients:
*3 Leaves romain, butter, or green leaf lettuce
*1 Boca burger/Morning Star burger
*1 Slice extra lean turkey bacon/morning star bacon
*1 Slice fat-free cheddar cheese
*2 tbsp Chopped tomato
*1 tbsp Chopped onion
*2 Dill pickle slices
*1 tbsp Ketchup
*1 tbsp Fat-free mayo


Directions:
*Cook burger patty according to package instructions, either in the microwave or in the pan, sprayed with nonstick spray.

*Top burger with the cheese slice. Microwave for about 20 seconds, until cheese melts. Set aside.

*Cook bacon slice in a pan sprayed with nonstick spray, unti both sides are crispy.

*Once burger and bacon are cool enough to handle, chop both into bite sized pieces.

*Place burger and bacon pieces in a small bowl. Add tomato, onion, and pickles, and mix well. Add ketchup and mayo. Toss to coat.

*Put 1/3 of the burger into eatch lettuce "cup" and dig in.

WW Points: *4 for 3 wraps


These were a homerun! Everyone was pretty pleased with the overall taste and the use of the leafs romain was quite creative.




Tid Bits:
*If you don't like romain hearts then you can use whatever lettuce you like.




Ma's Spot: First of all I love lettuce wraps. This one did not disappoint me. I love how you mix the ketchup, mayo, and other ingredients together. They are easy, quick, and delicious. We tried to think what to pair with it. I first thought baked fries but then Dinah Jane brought up that might be too heavy with this meal. I agreed, so we went with Dinah's idea of a nice fruit salad. She was right that was the perfect side dish to pair with the wraps. You can mix any of your favorite fruits together to make a nice salad to go with these wraps. I liked that it was light in taste and calories. So add this to your recipe box. You won't go wrong.




*SNACK CORNER:* It's time for snack corner! Where we take new snacks in the grocery store and break it down for you. We tell you which are hot and which are not. Let's get to this week's pick:

WW Points: *1 per fun size bar




Dinah: We're getting a head start on Halloween candy this year and bringing you the season's latest candy venture. Carmel Apple

Milky Way's are the latest candy to be stocked at Rite Aid (gotta promote my hunny's company) and local drugstores. This new flavor from Milky Way gives the taste of a carmel apple without all the extra calories that come with the original. I think these are perfect for Halloween and for *1 point a piece how can you turn away?These are highly addicting though. Might need some type of security while munching on these. Don't think so? Try these and don't say I didn't warn you ;].


Ma: First of all, dam the man/woman who came up with this concept! It had the perfect combination of apple and cinnamon. It blended nicely with the chocolate and melted so beautifully on my tongue. Needless to say I could never buy this again because I would eat the whole bag in 5 minutes. If you have more will power than me go ahead and pick these up.



That's all folks, we'll see you here next week with my next recipe choice and it's another remake of one of my fave items from Taco Bell. Wanna know which one? We'll see you here in 7 days. Have a great week guys!
