Notes
Try adding ¼ cup of both chopped red and orange bell peppers, to provide a colorful contrast to the bright green spinach. One-quarter cup each of chopped artichokes or water chestnuts are delicious additions as well.
In Winter and Spring Fat Flush, sprinkle with a pinch of basil and oregano for an Italian twist. This "flatbread" has so many functions... cut into wedges and top with your favorite veggies or spreads. Or cut it into squares, fill with tuna or egg salad, and it becomes a wrap. Its uses are only limited by your creativity!
