Health benefits of Roast Beef Rollups

Romaine lettuce contains chromium, which helps maintain normal blood glucose levels by making insulin more efficient. The chromium in romaine lettuce also promotes weight loss due to its ability to help control cravings, reduce hunger, and control fat in the blood.

Ingredients

6 (10-inch) whole-wheat flour tortillas
6 large romaine lettuce leaves
12 ounces thinly sliced cooked deli roast beef
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 cup diced red bell pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon cumin
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

For each rollup, tear a 15-inch piece of either waxed paper or foil. Place the tortilla flat on the paper or foil. Place a romaine lettuce leaf on top of each tortilla. Divide the beef onto the lettuce leaves. 
Combine the tomatoes, red peppers, oil, vinegar, cumin, and pepper. Divide the tomato mixture over the beef. 
Roll the paper or foil over the tortilla to encase the filling. Roll until the sandwich is completely rolled up. Fold the excess paper or foil over the top and bottom of each rollup. To eat, peel back the paper or foil.
