Wrap Battle

Hunting & Gathering

Let's face it—salads can get preeetty boring if you're on a health kick, especially when that little voice in the back of your head starts screaming: "BREAD!" Indulge the devil on your shoulder without falling off the deep carb end and go for the middle ground between plain salad and hearty sandwich with a wrap from Fast n Fresh. Take any one of their salads and have the nimble-handed makers behind the counter wrap it up tight—the spicy Thai kale salad curls up perfectly into a whole wheat wrap, the peanut dressing providing a needed kick to your lunch hour. Green and crunchy, the romaine lettuce finds its crispy soul mate in the ample helping of chopped wontons (think those irresistible baggied crackers that come with every order of Chinese food) while the healthy orange and purples of sliced carrots and cabbage add the veggie dose needed to satisfy your diet dreams. 

Fast n Fresh, 32 South Osprey Ave., Sarasota, 941-702-2900; 8138 Lakewood Main St., Lakewood Ranch, 941-462-2650.
