- Sesame can appear as an ingredient in foods where it might not be expected (tortillas) and may be included in ingredient statements as “spice” or “flavoring.”
- If preparing in advance, store tomato cream cheese mixture and vegetables in separate airtight containers at 40 °F or lower until ready to assemble wraps.
- The symbol indicates the recipe is whole grain-rich.
