Choose Cabbage

Cabbage is packed with compounds that researchers believe can protect us from heart disease and certain types of cancer.

Prep Time:30 min

Start to Finish:1 hr 5 min

makes:6 servings

1/2	cup uncooked brown rice
2	teaspoons dark sesame oil
4	green onions, sliced
1/4	lb snow peas, trimmed
1	cup finely shredded cabbage
1	cup shredded carrot
2	tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
2	teaspoons grated gingerroot
6	whole wheat tortillas (10- to 12-inch diameter)
6	tablespoons hoisin sauce
2	cup shredded cooked chicken breast

1.	Cook rice according to package directions; set aside.
2.	Meanwhile, in medium nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add green onions; cook and stir 1 minute or until wilted. Stir green onions into cooked rice.
3.	Fill 2-quart saucepan half full of water; heat to boiling. Add snow peas and cook 30 seconds. Drain and rinse with cold water until cool. Pat dry and cut lengthwise into thin strips. In medium bowl, stir together snow peas, cabbage, carrot, rice vinegar and gingerroot.

Divide rice and vegetable mixtures evenly over chicken. Fold over bottom edge of each tortilla to cover filling. Fold sides in and continue to roll up tightly, burrito style. Cut each in half crosswise with a serrated knife to serve.

Loved it!

This was a great recipe-everyone in my house loved them. The only thing I did differently, was I cooked the cabbage a bit, because my kids don't like raw cabbage. Yummy!

Not a Big Hit

I made these wraps for my boyfriend and I and we were pretty unimpressed. I didn't like the hoisin sauce and thought the whole combination was awkward and unappetizing. Maybe you need to be a dedicated Asian-food lover to enjoy these, because I definitely didn't.

Peking Chicken Wraps

I made the wraps last night. I already had the chicken that I barbecued the night before so off to the market and $18 later I had everything I know needed. I was feeding 2 people and it made 7-8 sandwiches so I find the price is right. The only thing I would change is to warm up the snow peas, carrots and cabbage along with the wrap. Salt content a little high, calories perfect and so good for you. Even great as a snack with the vege amount in it. Skip the hoisen sauce and you would save a lot on the salt. I used slow cooking brown rice, healthier for you. Yummy and making it again really soon. Enjoy
