Veggie Wrap With Mango Salsa
Hi everyone! Today, I’m sharing one of my favorite easy lunches, my mango salsa wrap! I created this last summer and I find myself gravitating towards it when I don’t have much time for lunch. I usually have the veggies on hand but if I don’t have everything, I just mix and match to create something similar! My favorite veggies to put on my wrap are cucumber, spinach, cherry tomatoes, pepper, and avocado.

I am a huge proponent when it comes to eating healthy! I enjoy feeding my body what it needs and I love feeling good from the inside out.

Over the past couple of years, I have been more aware of what I’m putting in my body. I am not obsessive by any means, but I do like to nourish my body to the best of my ability. With healthy eating comes a higher cost though, or does it? I…
