Wrap Sessions

I've been experimenting in the kitchen with these…Folios Cheese Wraps.  What the F is a Folios Cheese Wrap?  It's a disc of cheese which comes in three varieties — Parmesan, Cheddar or Jarlsburg — that functions like a tortilla. You can pile ingredients onto one, then roll it up and have a no-carb, Keto-friendly wrap.

You can heat it until it melts and you can sculpt it in a shape like a bowl — I've had zero success doing this — or heat it some more until it becomes a firm, albeit brittle disc of cheese. You more or less have to figure out what to do with them and there are a lot of YouTube videos in which folks show you what they've devised.

They're not cheap. The markets near me that carry them — not all do — sell a package of four for eight dollars. Amazon sells the same package for $6.23 and I got a package of ten for eight bucks from Costco. I can pretty much guarantee you'll ruin a few as you experiment and figure out what to do with them.

So far, I've just played with the Parmesan variety, which is the only one Costco carries, which leads me to suspect it's the most popular. And I guess they are popular because similar products are popping up from other companies.

I'm using them mainly for make-'em-yourself Hot Pockets. I heat one in the Microwave for sixty seconds. That makes it firm but malleable. Then I pile some finely-chopped cooked chicken or some tuna salad on it, then fold it over before it hardens further. Pretty good.

Last night, I tried defrosting a couple of frozen meatballs, chopping them up and putting the pieces and a spoonful of Rao's Marinara Sauce on one.  It was a little messy but tasty enough that the experiments will continue.  I'll report back if I master it or invent a new one-shot COVID-19 vaccine or anything.  Actually, I'll probably consider it a huge success if I can make one that I can eat and still have a clean shirt.
