Lower fat alternative
The original recipe was a bit high in WW Points value, so I halved all the portions and added a glass of skim milk, coming in at 6.5 points. It was still a very filling meal and tasted great! I bet this is a great pre-workout snack since it is so high in protein.

I thought this was an awesome idea for a dessert. Only thing we changed was that we used strawberries instead of bananas and also decided to use the mini tortillas to lessen some carbs. It was great though!

This receipe was DELICIOUS!! I agree that it only takes a "little" bit of honey, otherwise it is just too sweet. I found that when I ran out of the whole wheat wraps, I substituted some Ezekiel 4:9 Original bread and toasted it. It worked just as well, was very tasty, just not as portable!

Delish!!
This was so easy to make and very quick. I loved it!! I don't usually like sweet stuff to much, but this was good. Not too sweet, but sweet enough. Love it!!

Amazing!
The first time I tried it I used chocolate chips which made it a little too sweet. The second time I used crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy, no chocolate chips, and just drizzled a little bit of hunny on it. It was fantastic! And I felt healthy eating it. Next time, i'm going to add a little bit of cinnimon to it. They say Cinnomin and hunny cures a lot of things!

VERY, VERY Sweet
Now I love "sweet" just as much as the next girl but this was very overpoweringly sweet... I think next time I will put something in it to make it a little more "tart"... maybe some strawberry preserves or raspberry preserves would go better than honey..or just take out the chocolate chip morsels and put in raisins like another person had suggested. Another route would be to use dark chocolate mini-morsels as opposed to semi-sweet. Overall, a good snack but needs a little less sweet.

Wow!!!
I was not sure about this at first but I figured since I had all the ingredients I would just give it a try and wow, it was satisfying and filled me up for the whole morning! I did warm it up to get the chocolate chips to melt a little.

Rich!!
I thought the wrap was pretty good, very rich with the peanut butter and chocolate. I should have warmed it up before eating, I will try it again. Thanks!

This was delicious and felt sinful to eat. I used honey peanut butter (what I had in pantry) and I heated the wrap in a warm skillet prior to rolling it up. The chocolate was melted into the peanut butter and WOW! What a breakfast.

You can alternatively use a lower carbohydrate wrap in lieu of the tortilla! Whee! Great recipes here! Kudos to the chefs!

peanut butter wraps
This recipe is great. However I use sliced stawberries instead of the choc. chips. Seems healthier with berries instead of choc. Don't really need the honey if you use strawberries and bananas.

Yummy
Liked this....but if you are just planning on feeding yourself, make sure you use the small size wrap. The chips add a little something and overall it was really good.

Mmmmmm!
I love this recipe! Peanut butter is my favorite, and when you add bananas, chocolate, and honey....oh my gosh! I like to heat up the tortilla on my stove, and even add some granola and light cool whip to it. It's fabulous!
