Virgin America: Black Bean Quinoa Wrap
“I’m impressed by this menu,” says Dr. Jackie Buell, sports nutritionist at Ohio State University, talking about Virgin’s award-winning menu (it ranked at the top of Charles Platkin’s annual analysis of the healthiest airlines this year). Her top choice here: the Black Bean Quinoa Wrap meal, a roasted red pepper tortilla wrap filled with black bean hummus spread, chopped Romaine lettuce, and mixed quinoa salad, served with a side of charred corn salsa. According to Buell, besides looking tasty, the wrap packs protein, veggies, and nutrients that won’t lug you down. The entire meal contains 12 grams of protein, 22 grams of fat, and 49 grams of carbs. [$7.50 for the Black Bean Quinoa wrap; 430 Calories]
