Whip these up in the time it takes for the kids to walk from the bus to the kitchen! Though grape is a favorite, feel free to use berries, bananas or sliced peaches. Kids can enjoy this treat on-the-spot or you can wrap in foil and take them for the road.

Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons chunky peanut butter (no sugar or oil added)
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
  • 1 100% whole grain wrap (10 inch)
  • 1 cup grapes, halved
  • ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Stir together peanut butter and chia seeds (if using).
  2. Spread peanut butter mixture evenly on wrap, leaving 1 inch around the outside.
  3. Line grape halves up the middle of the wrap, leaving 1 inch at each end.
  4. Sprinkle grapes lightly with cinnamon.
  5. Roll tightly into a wrap making sure to fold the ends in.

Notes

  • Chia seeds add extra nutrients and your kids won’t even notice them. Another nutritious option is stirring ground flaxseed into peanut butter.
  • For a peanut-free wrap, substitute almond butter or sunflower seed butter.
