The Vegan Wrap (My Midnight Snack)


The wisdom of whatever the mind can conceive, it can be achieve, lucidly bounced back into my train of thoughts after i've tried and realized TPEB's food recipe. Neither am a bon vivant nor a special kind of vegan, but i really mind my food intake nowadays.

I realized also that preparing your own food somewhat relieves the tension inside the mind and body that was accumulated in a day's work. By cutting and slicing the veggies, and or prepping the bowls and all, somewhat creates a soothing and calming effect.

The Vegan Wrap lifted from TPEB's blog is so easy to prepare.

Everything's self-explanatory, based on the images below. Before you hit the break though, these are what make my tastebuds drip with gusto. So if you want to make you're own, be creative and follow your cravings. The possible list of ingredients can be found here.





Goodness great! Flashes of memories ran through me as i've seen the final outcome of the cut veggies inside the airtight containers, it brought me back to nostalgia at DELL's pantry in Mall of Asia where you could pick the fillings of your sandwich.



Listening to OPM alternatives (Eheads, Rivermaya and the likes) while the earphones are plugged tight on the iPhone made me even more crazy and anxious while preparing this. I couldn't help but smile deep inside. I think it's what you call, preparing your food with love and affection.


It was too late to find for a low calorie wrapper, so i just grabbed a brown-kubos (brown bread) and used it as my wheat tortilla.



Mixing, mixing, mixing. According to Celes, it's better to pour your dressing before plugging in the lettuce. Indeed! i followed.




I just added some mayo on the tomato ketchup.



Wrap it up, hahaha! i couldn't tuck it in properly. Cuz i'm superbly eager to chomp down and taste the home made creation.



Heavenly awesome!!! It's indescribable, i just so love the taste, i could really savor the juice of the mixed fruit and veggies, creating a deliciously aroma inside my mouth.

 It was unbelievably tasty. I relished it with gusto and pride. There are some points that i want to emphasize in here:

1. This home made wrap snacku is cheap and downright economical
2. Easy to prepare, and is not time consuming since you are segregating each veggie in a lunchbox, that is, whenever you feel like making one, just grab those boxes and pour them in to your tostillas.
3. It's utterly delicious and nutritiou.

My inner mind is trying to convince me again to slowly convert myself into a pure vegan. Somehow, i would do that in the future, not now. Meat is still irresistible.

Then again, i realize one thing here, i love preparing my own food, it gives that kind of unblurted satisfaction in the inside.




PS: if you choose grapes, make sure it's seedless... that oozing juice from it really makes you feel tangled.
