Recipe of the Day!

Smoked Turkey, Arugula, and Cranberry Wrap
Makes 4 wraps
Turkey doesn't contain much saturated fat or many calories, but it is incredibly satisfying. This wrap can be prepared the night before (pack the arugula separately) for your next day's lunch.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 onions, thinly sliced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped (wear plastic gloves when handling)
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 pound deli-sliced smoked turkey breast
4 spinach-flavored tortillas (8-inch diameter)
1/2 cup prepared cranberry sauce
1 cup loosely packed arugula leaves
To Make:
1. Heat a medium-size nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the oil. Add the onions, jalapeno, chili powder, and oregano. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the onions are golden and tender. Remove from the heat and cool for 10 minutes.
2. Place a quarter of the turkey down the center of each tortilla. Top with 2 tablespoons cranberry sauce, 2 tablespoons onions, and 1/4 cup arugula. With the filling facing you horizontally, fold the bottom of the tortilla over the filling. Fold in the two sides and then roll the filled portion over the remaining tortilla to form a package.
