I was too lazy/hungry to take pictures of my lunch today, but I should have.  I feel like pictures on other people's blogs make me more likely to try the recipe... because I can't get the yummy ones out of my mind.  Anyway, it all started with that veggie bagel sandwich The Pioneer Woman posted a while back.  With all the best intentions, I knew I still wouldn't get around to cutting up that many vegetables for only me.  For only lunch.  But ever since I saw that picture, I just can't get fresh, crunchy, crisp, cool things off my mind, which is probably why the below recipe was earmarked in Taste of Home's "Fun Food" issue from the grocery store aisle.  (Madalyn talked Poppy into buying it for her.)

Yesterday, I went to Panera with my mom and two of the youngin's and moaned over cheddar broccoli soup and a tomato basil bread turkey sandwich, today I moaned over this turkey wrap.  (I must be in need of some vitamins.)  It's nothing complicated, this wrap- took about 2 minutes to assemble, and can serve just one.  Praise the Lord!  Finally, something that deviates from plain old bread and turkey without much work.  Try it.  Even without a picture.  Please try it.  Especially if you're a sandwich-fan craving fresh, crunchy, crisp, cool things:

Turkey Ranch Wrap 

flour tortilla, warmed  (I just put it in the microwave for a few second between paper towels)

2-4 slices of turkey- just a thin layer across the wrap

thin tomato slices (I used the ones still on the vine)

shredded lettuce (Fresh Express bagged- can use again and again)

shredded cheddar

Ranch Dressing (I used a buttermilk ranch- I can only imagine using a homemade ranch on this, sigh...)

Just warm your tortilla, slice a tomato, and assemble in the order listed (you could also do green pepper, but I didn't want to waste a whole pepper on just moi.)  Roll it up, slice it down the middle, voila!  Something quick, cheap, and fresh.

It ain't fancy.  It hardly counts as a "recipe," but it's good.
