There's nothing better on a cold winter night than grilled cheese, maybe with a side of soup or salad. But a standard grilled cheese isn't exactly the healthiest thing in the world. So here's a dish that will satisfy your desire for warm, cheesy goodness, with fewer calories and far more nutrition.
Ingredients that need a hechsher, and product recommendations:
- Whole-grain tortilla (Ezekiel 4:9 Sprouted Whole Grain Tortilla)
- 2 oz. Fresh mozzarella cheese (you can find kosher fresh mozarella at Trader Joe's)
- Hummus (Trader Joe's, or Tribe)
- Ginger salad dressing (Newman's Own Lite Low Fat Sesame Ginger Dressing)
Ingredients that don't need a hechsher:
-Fresh kale
Directions:
Wash 2 cups of kale thoroughly, and check for bugs. Place washed kale in a microwave-safe bowl with 1 tbsp of water. Microwave on high for 2 minutes.
If there's any water left after microwaving, drain it. Then, toss the kale with 2 tbsp of ginger salad dressing.
Chop mozzarella into small pieces, for easier melting. Not sure how much 2 oz. of cheese is? It's about 2 pieces of string cheese. Place cheese pieces in the center of a tortilla, on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave for 30 seconds; if cheese is not melted, continue microwaving in 10-second intervals until it is.
Spread hummus on sides of tortilla. Fill tortilla with kale, and wrap it up.
