These 2 back-to-school recipes are a fun way to inspire kids to eat veggies. The rollups are made with colorful veggies and a delicious peanut butter spread. The wrap is made up of Thai Quinoa Salad and it’s also very colorful.

How hard is it to get kids to eat their veggies?

How hard is it to get them to eat in the first place?

I was a finicky eater as a kid, so, I completely understand why kids eat one thing and completely ignore the existence of another.

So, when I found out about TortillaLandⓇ uncooked tortillas, I knew I just had to try back to school recipes.

When school is in, meal prep is always a priority! This is how I have my weekdays setup –

Monday – Asian Meal

Tuesday – Italian Recipes

Wednesday – Indian Recipes

Thursday – Greek Recipes

Friday – Takeout Night!!

As you can see, I like to keep it interesting! I know I am not going to be bored and eat junk food because the meals are blah!!

The best part is that I can use TortillaLand tortillas on any of the cuisines. It takes only 60 seconds to warm them in the skillet and fill it with ingredients from all over the world

The tortillas come in the refrigerated section at Costco in packs of 36 or 50. I just have to peel as many as I need and then freeze the rest. To warm them up, I just place them on a hot skillet, warm it up on each side for 30 seconds and….

…Voila

I have freshly made tortillas!

They looked SOOOO good right off the skillet that I didn’t even wait to put ingredients on it! I just ate it right away. Sure, I burnt the roof of my mouth, but, the taste was totally worth it!!

It reminds me of my friend’s grandmother who used to make tortillas from scratch for all recipes. They tasted just like homemade! Her grandmother was from Mexico and she would make tortillas every afternoon for that night’s dinner.

Just like grandmother’s tortillas, these TortillaLand tortillas are made with only 5 ingredients: Wheat Flour, Water, Canola Oil, salt and sugar.

For me, it’s much easier to buy them in bulk at Costco. I know I am going to go through them quickly! I found them in the refrigerated section at Costco which is convenient because I can get all the other ingredients for the meal plan for the week.

The Quinoa Wrap with the fresh tortilla was the perfect lunch recipe. However, you can freeze it and use it for the rest of the week. When you are ready to eat, just heat it in the mini-oven and serve.
