Remember this recipe??? I honestly can't get myself to eat egg salad any other way! This is truly a ridiculously healthy version of our beloved traditional egg salad. This whole situation is about 180 calories (per serving)! You can't beat that for a healthy AND delicious lunch option. Plus, don't you get sick of eating a salad every single day? If you're anything like me, you appreciate variety. You can make this wrap ahead of time and enjoy it at work. The best part is that you won't feel guilty at all!

I usually don't like fruit in my salads. I'm a savory salad kinda gal. I don't like sweet dressings either. My favorite dressing is lemon juice and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. I know, so boring but I really enjoy the flavors from good EVOO and tangy lemon juice. I don't know what got into to me but I tried a version of this salad at Pizza Antica at Santana Row and immediately fell in love. The restaurant's version had strawberries and pecorino on a bed of arugula with a drizzle of balsamic dressing and a sprinkle of toasted almonds.

Remember this Garlicky Chard? I was so obsessed with it that I tried a similar recipe with carrots and chickpeas this time. The combination was oh so delightful! I love how the chickpeas soaked up the flavors and juices from the chard, carrots and of course, the garlic. Also, lets not forget how easy it is to make this dish and it will be ready in minutes!

I was beat after the run but felt so great burning 545 calories! I wanted to make a nutritious lunch so after brainstorming ideas while running, I came up with this recipe.
