Wrap it Up

October 29, 2009 by Julie 8 Comments

Oh how I wish our work break room had an oven. Rather than making myself an eggplant, broccoli, and spinach pizza, the lack of an oven forced me to turn my desire for thin n’ crispy pizza crust into a make-shift pizza wrap.

Delicious… but not the crispy crust I was hopin’ for.

Pizza Wrap

I topped a Joseph’s lavash with marinara sauce, goat cheese, broccoli, roasted eggplant and fresh spinach.

I love how the goat cheese melted into the marinara and made a creamy pink sauce.

Lots o' Spinach

Mah Lunch

The wrap was veeeery good, but fell apart about half way through. I love messy foods and still polished it off with a fork!

We also had a special visitor at our office today… my boss’ adorable daughter stopped by with Halloween goodies for everyone. She was too cute in her orange and black.

In my candy bag I found several sweet treats, but my hands immediately went for the chocolate.

PB and Chocolate = Match Made in Heaven

Love the Cookie Crunch

I ate one before lunch as my appetizer…

…then the other as my dessert.  🙂

This past weekend when I was chatting with my mom, I was sharing some of the tips I included in my article about maintaining a healthy diet when the Halloween candy hits. She informed me that she already purchased the big bag of our favorite chocolates… KitKats, Milky Ways, Reese’s, Snickers… the works! Looks like this weekend at home will really test my willpower!

I actually noticed that after I finished eating the candy, I immediately wanted more. I wasn’t hungry since I just finished my lunch, but I adore chocolate and could eat myself sick with the stuff. Clearly candy is a trigger food for this girl!

Question: What’s your favorite Halloween candy?

    My favorite Halloween candy would have to be the one you pictured first–Reese’s Peanut Butter cups. YUM! Anything chocolate, really, sets me up for failure. 😉

    Thanks so much for stopping by yesterday. Congrats on starting your blog! 🙂

    I always want more, too. I love snickers. Otherwise, I am a chocolate snob and only like expensive chocolate. 🙂

    I’ve never thought to make a pizza wrap! That looks so yummy!! Great idea!! 🙂

    My favorite halloween candy without a doubt are the candy pumpkins! I can resist candy corn, but I don’t know what it is about those pesky little pumpkins that is so irresistable!!

    I have a serious sweet tooth during the day and after dinner…or maybe always. I’ve been looking for that protein powder, but there were so many on that website and I couldn’t find it. help!

      Hey Lauren! Try Nutraplanet.com: http://www.nutraplanet.com/manufacturer/all-the-whey/ – these are 5 lb. tubs though which is a TON. You can get 2 lb. tubs at allthewhey.com. Let me know if you can’t find what you’re looking for!
