Low Carb Wrap Secrets Unwrapped

Wrap sandwiches are one of the new trends in health food, and they have become popular with all sorts of people, whether on a diet or not. Low-carb wraps are now the newest craze on the health food market, and they are just one more of the new food items that diversify the range of choices for carb-counting dieters. Leading the pack is fast-food chain Subway. For years, Subway has marketed itself as a health-oriented fast food restaurant, and its new low-carb wraps continue that trend. Now, Subway markets itself as the low-carb fast food restaurant, meeting your dietary needs. In December 2003, Subway reached a licensing agreement with Atkins Nutritionals, Inc., allowing Subway to offer Atkins-friendly wraps in stores nationwide. Special wheat and soy grains are used to make the new low-carb wraps, which are high in fiber and protein. Additionally, the new wraps contain approximately two-thirds less carbohydrates than Subway's regular 6-inch sub sandwiches, and they will cost customers about 50 cents more.

Subway is not the only place to find these low-carb wraps; many restaurants carry such items, and grocery stores stock the ingredients necessary to make your own. Behind this new food craze is the larger movement toward low-carb diets, a trend that has Americans everywhere counting their carbohydrates and finding new ways to enjoy alternative, low-carb breads, pastas, fruits and the like. There are currently two low-carb wraps at Subway right now, and the number of carbs varies from source to source. The first is the chicken bacon ranch, with approximately eight grams of net carbs. There is also the turkey and bacon melt. This has a bit more net carbohydrates. There are about 10 net carbs in the turkey bacon melt, but it's still low enough to easily fit into your low-carb diet. Again, restaurants aren't your only source for low-carb wraps. Many grocery stores carry the ingredients necessary to create your own, and you can find recipes for the making the tortillas themselves in cookbooks and on the Internet.

Yum, SO good. And great on a hot summer day. I will let you knoiw how I get on with this one because i will have to give it a go. I vote up and thank you for sharing. Thanks for stopping by. Yesterday, I just bought everything to make the Strawberry dessert. I've been craving it now and it is so good! I hope you are doing well too - thanks for the votes. Looks like a winner to me Sharyn! I love any kind of dessert and of course the kitty Cool Whip is my favorite! Hope you are well and using lots of Cool Whip this summer! Voted up and useful! Ha, that is a great idea. It's kinda cloudy here today and supposed to rain. I like your idea. And I will be grocery shopping today. No doubt I am feeling the need to make something with the magic ingredients.

Have a great weekend! Well, there goes the diet - but thanks Sharyn - this is just the thing to make for rainy days when I equate eating with sunshine! I think you should try dipping carrots in CW & CC. I'm so glad you stopped by. Thanks for your sweet comments. I seriously could eat the CW & CC combo just by itself with a spoon. Have a great weekend! Yum Yum. Just when I kick one bad habit along comes another temptation. Oh well, a girl has to have a vice or two. Isn't it funny that the idea of combining these two ingredients seems disgusting but is really out-of-this-world amazing, Voted up and awesome. Great job at presenting the facts and some useful recipes here. Hey, that's a great idea. Have your mom make the recipes and you simply enjoy! I'm glad you liked this and that you took the time to stop by and comment.

I love cheese and I love your recipes. Yummy. It looks so delicious. Thanks for writing and share with us. As usual, I'll show this to my mom. Well done, Sharyn. Vote it up! I know it's kind of "corny" but I really do think that Cool Whip and cream cheese are a MAGIC combo. I can't believe how I am craving any one of these recipes right now. And yes, isn't that kitten so adorable, Thanks for taking the time to read and comment. Have a wonderful day! I have never had a cream cheese omelette. Sounds good, please give us the recipe. And Cool Whip as a toy, I best it was fun. I'd like to have a Cool Whip eating contest with a bunch of people sitting around the picnic table outside. Kinda like a watermelon eating contest - but even messier! Thanks for stopping by and for your fun comments. Thank you again for the "inspiration." And YES, you are so right about cream cheese and marshmallow cream.
