Healthy Peanut Butter Wrap with Banana

This is a healthy wrap I use for breakfast because it's a perfect balance of fruit, healthy fats, protein and fiber.  I don't personally eat a lot of fruit except in the mornings, but this can also be a well balanced lunch or afternoon snack that will boost your energy.  The trick is finding the low carb tortillas.  When I say low carb, what you want is high fiber.  The carb count is not all that different, but the high fiber counteracts the carbs you ingest.

Ingredients:
1 low carb tortilla
2 tbsp. natural peanut butter
1 banana
1 tbsp. Manuka honey

1. Spread peanut butter over on 1/2 side of the tortilla.
2. Slice the banana into thin slices and cover the peanut butter side.
3. Drizzle with honey over the banana slices.
4. Fold, and cut in half.

Tip: If you are taking this as a to-go breakfast or snack, I recommend carrying honey in a separate container or baggie, until you are ready to eat.  Otherwise it will run all over the place after some time.
