Grilled Veggie Wraps

The key to this recipe’s success is the three-cheese spread. My father is strictly a meat-and-potatoes man, but he definitely liked these wraps!

PREP: 15 MIN. + MARINATING GRILL: 15 MIN. MAKES: 4 SERVINGS

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1/2 teaspoons minced fresh basil

1/2 teaspoons olive oil

1/2 teaspoons molasses

3/4 teaspoon minced fresh thyme

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

1 medium zucchini, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices

1 medium sweet red pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces

1 medium red onion, cut into 1/2-inch slices

4 ounces whole fresh mushrooms, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

4 ounces fresh sugar snap peas

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

3 tablespoons reduced-fat cream cheese

2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon reduced-fat mayonnaise

4 flour tortillas (8 inches)

4 romaine leaves

1. In a resealable plastic bag, combine the first seven ingredients; add vegetables. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 2 hours, turning once.

2. Drain and reserve marinade. Transfer vegetables to a grill wok or basket. Grill, uncovered, over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

3. Set aside 1 teaspoon marinade. Turn vegetables; baste with remaining marinade. Grill 5-8 minutes longer or until tender, stirring frequently. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine cheeses and mayonnaise; set aside.

4. Brush one side of each tortilla with reserved marinade. Place tortillas, marinade side down, on grill for 1-3 minutes or until lightly toasted.

5. Spread 3 tablespoons of cheese mixture over ungrilled side of each tortilla. Top with romaine and 1 cup grilled vegetables; roll up.

NOTE If you do not have a grill wok or basket, use a disposable foil pan. Poke holes in the bottom of the pan with a meat fork to allow liquid to drain.
