1/2 cup mayo
1 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
1 cup sun dried tomatoes (chopped)
1 ½ cups spinach (chopped)

3 large flour tortillas (or 6 smaller tortillas)

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone cheese

Part-skim mozzarella lowers fat content without sacrificing flavor.

sun-dried tomatoes

🥗Healthier: fresh tomatoes

💰Cheaper: canned tomatoes

Fresh tomatoes provide a lighter option and canned are more economical.
