Notes
Note: I used to love the Flat Out Wrap but they discontinued them in March of 2024! If pita bread is too heavy for you, you can also use a tortilla-- the Mission spinach tortillas are delish!Amazing (but easy!) homemade Tzatziki Sauce recipe here!Nutrition is only an estimate according to the Very Well Fit Nutrition Calculator and does not include tzatziki sauce.
