What I love about this Best Life recipe is that it's really satisfying. Between the Flatout Wrap and all the veggies, you get 11 grams of filling fiber. Plus, the chicken is loaded with protein, which has an appetite-quelling effect. You'll get a hefty dose of healthy omega-3 fats from both the Canola Cholesterol Free mayo and the Flatout wrap, and a lot of flavor from the fresh basil. All this for less than 300 calories! In fact, I'd even recommend adding a heaping cup of chopped fruit topped with 6 ounces to round out the meal. Forget about midday munchies—this meal should take you right through to dinner!
