This salad was baby spinach topped with leftover grilled steak, fresh cucumbers, sliced tomato, shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese, crumbled thick cut bacon, sliced red onion, and diced avocado. I ate it with some Caesar dressing and it was delish!

Steak Salad
This is another post on how to use up leftovers. It's not a true recipe just an idea for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. I love making salads with leftover chicken or steak and add all my favorites like cheese, bacon, and avocado. Leftovers never have to be boring, as a matter of fact they make getting lunch on the table and in your tummy lightning fast!

Chicken Bacon Club Wrap
I was at Walmart today and I found these Joseph's Low Carb Lavash Wraps. Since starting low carb in May of this year I have never had any kind of low carb wrap, tortilla, or bread. I've seen these wraps at Netrition.com where I frequently shop for low carb goodies, but i've never ordered them before. The nutrition stats are great. One serving is half of a giant wrap. Each serving has 7 carbs minus 3 fiber for a net carb of 4. I was very surprised at how good these wraps tasted. I loved the texture, taste, and even the way they look.
They also had Joseph's low carb pita bread but I didn't get any today. The package of lavash bread was $2.12 for 4 huge wraps which give you 8 servings. This is the way I used them:
Ingredients:
1 serving (1/2) Joseph's Low Carb Lavash Bread
1/2 leftover boneless chicken breast, cut in strips
1 strip of bacon, cooked and cut in three pieces
1 slice american cheese
1 ring of bell pepper, cut in strips
1/8 of an avocado
2 large leaves of iceberg lettuce
2 slices tomato
4 slices cucumber
1 thin ring of onion
1 tbsp ranch dressing
Directions:
1. I lightly toasted the wrap in a pan, but it would also be great room temperature.
2. Spread the ranch dressing on the wrap.
3. Add the cheese, chicken, bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado, bell pepper, onion and cucumber.
4. Roll the wrap and slice diagonally in two.
There are many variations you could do with these wraps. Rueben wrap, chicken Caesar wrap, supreme pizza wrap, buffalo chicken wrap and more!
This huge, extra stuffed wrap has total net carbs of 8.65. It was definitely worth it because it had alot of veggies, protein, and fiber. Yummy!
