I was just wondering...is it bad to have grilled chicken wraps almost every night?


Posted by sportem

I was just wondering...is it bad to have grilled chicken wraps almost every night?  I'm attending college and i know that variation with my food is healthy, but I'm talking about nutritionally: is it healthy or not healthy to have grilled chicken wraps most nights?...this is what i usually put on it:

  • i have the actual wrap (tortilla i think is what it's called)
  • lettuce
  • onion
  • tomatoes
  • fat-free ranch and mustard
  • olives
  • cheese
  • grilled chicken

I know this is probably a lame question, but I am really interested...anyone have any ideas?  Thanks!
