Classic Deli Wraps: Evaluation

This was a slightly hard recipe to make. I had to chop up a lot of things. I also had to shop for a few items that we didn't have. It was worth it though. Mom really like the wrap I made for her. I thought that my wrap was okay. I think I still like Barbeque Cream Cheese Wraps better though. The Classic Deli wrap was healthy and it filled me up. The only problem was that it took a lot of ingredients for just one or two wraps.
