I'm having a cookbook clear-out, and have decided to leave reviews for some of the cookbooks before I donate them to charity.

This is a nice little cookbook with large illustrations and easy to follow recipes. The wrap recipes don't just use wheat flour wraps, but also pancakes, corn tortillas, chapattis, and recipes using vegetables as a wrap. If you wish to make the wraps from scratch too, all the recipes are at the very end of this book. As I now have to live on a gluten free diet I've sort of fallen out with wraps for the time being.
