Fruit Wraps!

Making a quick delicious breakfast can sometimes be a challenge whether at home or at your KES Club. Finding ways to incorporate vegetables and fruits can also be a challenge.  The recipe below is a great way to serve one or two servings of fruit in one small wrap.  Fruit wraps are great for a morning breakfast at home, an afterschool snack or even at your KES Club, if you have the facilities to do so, if not serve them cold, they will still be delicious that way too.  As always, get the kids involved…they can help roll the wraps!  To save time during busy mornings, prep these the day/night before.
