Ingredients
- 1 tbsp. (15 mL) spreadable cream cheese
- 1 large (10-inch/25-cm) flour tortilla, regular or flavored
- 2 tbsp. (30 mL) shredded carrot
- 2 tbsp. (30 mL) thinly sliced red or yellow pepper
- 2 tbsp. (30 mL) chopped red onion

Cooking Instructions
- Spread cream cheese over the tortilla to within 1/2 inch (1 cm) of the edges.
- Arrange all the filling ingredients in a row along the center one-third of the tortilla. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
- Roll the tortilla up as tightly as possible to enclose the filling without tearing the tortilla. Cut in half crosswise and eat immediately, or wrap both halves in plastic wrap to pack into a lunch bag.
