Chicken and White Bean Salad Wraps

So the recipe I wanted to share with you all is a wrap I found last year. After I had my son (I have a one year old sniff-sniff!) I was longing to get some kind of exercise in. I found a gadget called the Core Body Reformer. It was a great beginning to get back into the workout world. After having two kids you can imagine how shot my core was from pregnancy. This little machine was amazing. I got on it every day whether it was for a 10 minute work out for a 40 minute workout. I kept this up for about one month and then I recently just moved over to the Beach Body series. I’m happy to say that 30 minutes of exercise is now a goal of mine six times a week. Both of these programs came with a little recipe book and this salad wrap instantly became a favorite of mine.

So lets talk about this awesome lunch recipe. I always want something that I can make on a Sunday or Monday and eat throughout the week. I often find myself getting off track and not eating so healthy when I only have 15 min to grab lunch because of our hectic schedules. Food prep is something I’m trying to make a regular part of my routine every week.  This dish is easy to grab and eat fast! I ate it all week and DID NOT get sick of it!

The nutritional info is included below and is based on Tuna because it was originally made with that.  I had chicken in my pantry and decided to go with it, it even added flavor since it was sun dried tomato and herb!! Yummy!

Ingredients:

10 oz of sundried tomato and herb chicken (in a can by the tuna)
15 oz can of cannellini beans, rinced and drained
2 tbsp. of red wine vinegar
1/2 cup of red onion
2 stalks of celery, chopped
Pepper
2 tbsp. fresh parsley (I used dried)
2 tbsp. of olive oil
Romaine lettuce leaves
1/2 tomato, chopped

What to do:

Combine chicken, beans, vinegar, onion, celery, pepper, parsley and olive oil in a medium bowl and mix well. (I used a fork to mix the chicken up first because I’m picky and don’t like a lot of chunks.) Place the mixture on a lettuce leave top with tomatoes and more parsley if desired. Wrap and eat! I also had this on bread, the Flat Outs by the Hungry Girl, 100 calories each…….awesome! Then the rest of the week I had it over a bed of lettuce, no dressing! Awesome!!!
