Many of the recipes are inspired by Thai, Mexican, Italian, Japanese, Southwestern, Californian, and other international and regional cuisines, and the wraps can be made with any kind of flat bread, tortilla, or pita .
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Wraps are one of the latest culinary trends, turning up on the menus of upscale restaurants and hotly promoted at fast-food outlets. Each of these books offers 100 imaginative recipes for these "new" sandwiches, from Thai Cucumber and Pork Wraps (Brown) to Wrap-tatouille (Cotler) to Bananas Foster Roll Ups (Brown). Brown's collection is somewhat more unusual, including separate chapters on breakfast/brunch and dessert wraps; Cotler has a longer introduction, on techniques and ingredients, and includes low-fat variations and make-ahead tips with most recipes. But there's little overlap between the two, and each has its own appeal. If you want just one, the first choice is probably Brown's All Wrapped Up, with its somewhat more diverse types of wraps; larger collections could add both titles.

This review is from: Wrap It Up: 100 Fresh, Bold, and Bright Sandwiches with a Twist (Paperback)
This book has wonderful and unique recipes for wraps! However, these are more adult flavors and combinations... not something kids are likely to enjoy as much.

By Nancy (connecticut) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wrap It Up: 100 Fresh, Bold, and Bright Sandwiches with a Twist (Paperback)
well, who would have thought there was so many ways to wrap it up and so many taste, color, and texture combinations! I liked the book because it wasn't your average "chicken for the family" recipe book..It found a great little niche..Ms. Cotler explores something creatively different fun, and tasty as well; great as a gift idea! Happy munching!
