I'm at the point in my journey where I'm ready to start cooking for myself again. I'm terrified that I won't be able to do it, but I won't actually know until I start.
So tonight, I started. I cooked Grilled Chicken Wraps from MyRecipes.com.
The recipe was super simple, and quite delicious. It's 288 calories which is excellent. Make this and enjoy eating healthy.

Serves 4
288 Calories/serving
Serving size - one wrap, 1/4c Chicken, one slice of pickle (sandwich sliced), 1/4 c cabbage
1/2 c canola mayonnaise (turns out this is pretty good)
3 T white wine vinegar, divided
2 1/2 tsp black pepper, divided
1/4 tsp kosher salt, divided
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1 c shredded cabbage
2 tsp bread-and-butter pickle juice (When I make this again, I'll use dill. I didn't really like the bread and butter pickles)
2 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
Cooking spray
4 light flatbread sandwich wraps (such as Flatout Light Original) (I couldn't find these in my local grocery store so I found some wraps that were the same calories)
4 sandwich-cut bread-and-butter pickles
Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Combine mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons vinegar, 2 teaspoons black pepper (Jenn Note - I thought 2 tsp was quite a bit so I only used 1 tsp and it was plenty), 1/8 teaspoon salt, and lemon juice in a small bowl, stirring well. Combine 1 tablespoon vinegar, cabbage, and pickle juice in a medium bowl; toss.

Place one flatbread on each of 4 plates; divide chicken mixture evenly among flatbreads. Top each serving with about 1/4 cup cabbage mixture and 1 pickle; roll up. Cut each wrap in half diagonally.
