A variation on the cucumber sandwhich

I do not usually buy bread. This is partially to push myself to bake my first loaf myself, and partly because I live with four lovely ladies who already know how to bake bread, and partly because when I cut down my grocery list to economy size, the empty carbs of a cheap loaf of bread usually is the first to go. Today, however, I was craving a sandwhich and I did not want to bake. I wanted a cucumber sandwhich! Fortunately what I did have were some flour "tortilla" wraps (those are not authentic tortillas!). So, I got one of those, and spread some reduced fat cream cheese on it. Then I peeled and sliced some cucumbers and put it in the wrap. The textures and flavors went perfectly together. This is definitely going to become a staple lunch item for me!
