quarter 1 red pepper and 1 red onion!. Put them in a bowl and drizzle over some olive oil and balsamic vinegar, add salt and pepper and make sure the vegetables are well coated in the dressing!. Transfer to a baking tray and roast in a hot oven until slightly charred!. While the veg are cooking, grill a chicken breast!. When cool, slice into strips!. Mix the roasted veg with 1 tsp pesto!. Take the roasted veg, the sliced chicken breast and 1 or 2 flour tortilla to work with you!. To make the wrap, lay out the tortilla and fill with the roasted veg and the chicken, and salt and pepper to taste!. Carefully fold in the sides and roll up!. Add a mixed leaf salad if you like!.

It is hard to eat healthy, you must do some prep work!.
Sub sandwiches- Make with whole grain bread, lean meat and cheeses, veggies and dressing that you like!. Use a whole loaf and cut into servings and wrap each one in plastic wrap and refrigerate!.
Layer your favorite meat (have Mom cook some chicken breast strips or roast beef or ground beef ahead of time) and cheese with refried beans on a whole wheat or veggie tortilla and heat in the microwave, cut into sections and dip into your favorite salsa!.
Wash an apple, slice and layer peanut butter on it!. Wash celery, cut into pieces and serve with peanut butter or pimento cheese!.
Pita Pizza!. Split open pita bread!. Spread on your favorite pizza sauce or tomato sauce seasoned with Italian seasoning, add your favorite toppings (the precooked meat will come in handy here as well) and heat in microwave
You could do some research on the internet and find all sorts of good healthy recipes!. If you can, plan and prepare with your mom and fill the fridge!. That is what we do!. Good Luck!
