A great book with yummy recipies

This is a great book, I made a few recipies in it and really I only had one wrap that turned out bad. Other than that, everything in this book is really easy to make and from what I've had, the food has been excellent.

Fun book

This has a fun, international and cuisine-style selection, but with minimal exotic-ingredient searching. Sometimes I even make the recipes - dare I say it - without the wrap. Sometimes you want a cookbook that has authentic, exotic recipes, but other times you want a fun, easy way to sample basic versions of different style food - Creole, Thai, German, French, South American, Jamaican, etc.

Great recipes for picnics or food on the go.

I do a lot of hiking & bike riding, and I bought this book to get some ideas for lunches that I could make in the morning and take with me. As for the previous review's comments, this book does have some recipes with unusual ingredients, but most are easily found in an average grocery store. This book does not promise to be a pantry-cookbook (in other words, you may not have all the ingredients on hand). What it does deliver is many great recipes for wraps. Some of my favorites are the "Pizza Pie" wrap, "Ice Cream wrapwich" and the Ceasar wrap (called "Render unto caesar"). Give this book a try and I think you will find several if not many recipes that you will want to make again and again.

Awesomely delicious!

For all you "wraps" lovers out there (as in the adulteration of food by combining all kinds of stuff and putting them in fancy or plain tortillas . . . as in we used to call them burritos!) read on!Wraps, Easy Recipes for Handheld Meals by Mary Corpening Barber, Sara Corpening and Lori Lyn Narlock, published by Chronicle Books in San Francisco is filled with wonderful recipes that are indeed truly easy to make. They include breakfast, lunch, dinner and yes, even dessert wraps. (I can't wait to try one of the dessert ones! I love anything in a tortilla!) Last night, I made "King Creole," a tribute to my Cajun past and it was awesome!Beautiful color photographs by Frankie Frankeny accompany many of the recipes. My kitchen cabinet had most of the ingredients (although I had to run out and buy onion powder and bay leaves) and flavored tortillas are available at a number of specialty grocery stores. Of course, plain flour tortillas can be used on all of the recipes.You ought to have seen me dancing around the kitchen last night as I gleefully declared, "I MADE A WRAP!"Bon Appetit! Vickie

Buy This Cookbook!

I love everything about this cookbook and read it cover to cover. There are many vegetarian recipies and all the recepies can be made low fat with substitutions (for example, low fat sour cream instead of regular). The photos are beautiful and the writing is witty. You can try several of the recipies without expensive start-up costs and I made one right away with ingredients I had on hand. A delightful cookbook with great ideas I will be using for breakfast, lunch and dinner!
