Ground Chicken Flatbread Wraps!

I have seen lots of people use this method for making high protein, low calorie flatbread wraps, and I just had to take my turn at making them. I'm so glad I did! They are quick, super easy, great to make ahead, and really delicious!

I make four of them here -- two being a Mediterranean version and two being a Mexican version, but the possibilities are endless! …a cheeseburger version, a Middle Eastern version with a touch of cinnamon… Yum!

I used low carb tortillas to keep the calories down, but pita or even a regular tortilla would be so good too! These start as a flavorful flatbread as prepared, but it really is all about how you stuff them!

I make delicious and satisfying high protein, high fiber, low calorie meals!

When I hit my 50s and went into menopause, it felt like my body had been taken over by an alien! Despite cooking at home and eating whole, clean foods, I started gaining weight, felt exhausted all the time, and—let’s be honest—I was mad at everyone!

I found myself visiting doctors often, desperate to feel healthy again.

Everything changed when I discovered the power of prioritizing protein at every meal and lifting heavy weights to build muscle! I finally feel like myself again!

I make delicious and satisfying high protein, high fiber, low calorie meals that work if you are in a calorie deficit, looking for protein, trying to build and retain muscle or just want some inspiration in the kitchen for what to cook and eat!

I can’t wait for you to join me in my kitchen!
