Notes

Use lite mayo or Miracle Whip. You may use Greek yogurt in place of mayo. Use carb or whole wheat tortilla wraps. Use canned corn, or boil your own fresh corn. Use the shredded cheese of your choice; there are fat-free versions. In place of mayo or yogurt, you can use southwest calories dressing.
