Answer
4 small chicken breasts, sliced into strips
1 tablespoon Cajun spice
2 teaspoons olive oil
4 large flour tortillas
1/2 cup tzatikki dip
1 medium zuccini, grated
1 large carrot, grated

Method:
1. Place chicken strips, Cajun spice and oil in a bowl, cover and set aside for 10 minutes.

2. Heat a large non-stick fry pan over a medium-high heat.

3. Place the chicken strips in the pan and cook, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes or until brown and cooked through. Transfer to a bowl and keep warm.

4. Top each tortilla with Tzatziki dip, carrot, zuccini and grated carrot.

5. Serve immediately, or wrap for later use with a green salad of your choice.


Or a sandwich with a salad can be an easier alternative.
Salads are really good also.

I'm about to be enrolled into a new school and this school doesn't have a cafeteria so all students have to bring their own food.I'm tired of traditional lunches and I don't care for juvenile things like pb&j sandwiches.I need something that is different,healthy,tasty,suitable for a teenager.And something besides sandwiches. Any ideas ? Vegetarian/vegan recipes are acceptable.
@ Jenna,lol.

Answer
Chuck away the pb&j and put your mind into gear for some really good sandwiches

Asparagus rolls are well know and are popular, tomato and egg, cheese and vegemite, jam, honey, marmalade, cucumber, cold meats, lettuce, grated carrots and raisins, cheese and pineapple.
Test and explore combinations, types of garnishes, chutneys, pickles, relishes, different types of bread, buns and rolls,Hamanan
