I'm stuck in the hotel room while my husband and son get to frolic all day. I've had this ridiculous bad cold practically the whole time we've been here and it's not getting any better. So after my second trip to urgent care this morning I sent the guys on their merry way and quarantined myself in the room.
Lunch was a can of Andersen's pea soup I picked up from the drug store where I got my Z-Pack prescription (sinus infection, too!). Dinner was going to be trickier. The hotel fridge is as small as you can get, and there's not much in it. But I managed to come up with a pretty tasty wrap made from a Mission Carb Balance tortilla (high fiber, high protein and 110 calories), 2 slices of Jarlsberg Lite cheese (100 calories and higher in calcium than other cheeses) and a small Fuji apple (around 55 calories and a couple more grams of fiber).
I sliced the apple with a plastic knife I saved from a cutlery pack from last night's baseball game. Then I put the apple on the top half of the tortilla and put the cheese over the apple. I then microwaved everything in the teeny low-power hotel room microwave for 1 minute, rolled it up and voila! Dinner.
Next time, I think I'll try a tarter apple, like a Granny Smith, but overall, it was a pretty good dinner in a pinch -- high in fiber, protein and calcium and only 265 calories.
