Roll It Up!

I'm not sure how we started with the roll-ups, but they have become a staple in my family's diet.  Ellie requests a peanut-butter and honey roll-up AT LEAST once a day (she doesn't always get one, but she asks for them all the time!).  I love to add peanuts and bananas to my peanut butter and honey.  I use leftover Mexican Night dinner to make rice and bean roll-ups.  They're great for the pool, lunches and they're so versatile that all of the kids love them.  So when I happened to flip over the bag of  La Tortilla Factory Sonoma Organic Wraps and found a chart of roll-up ideas I was ecstatic!
I thought it would be a good thing to share on here since it's a quick, healthy option for meals.  Here is my reproduction of the chart found on the back of the package.  Have fun rolling! (Just to clarify, that's a tortilla reference, NOT a drug reference!)
