I received a Klout perk to try out the new Premium McWrap’s
which are available at McDonald’s. Before
being invited into the perk I had heard about the McWrap’s because they had
pretty decent Weight Watchers Points Plus values associated with them (the
grilled variety at least). Granted, when
making things at home you can make them for less (points) but I admit when
going out to eat sometimes finding point friendly foods can be a pain in the
keester.
Prior to the McWrap’s I used to order the grilled chicken
sandwich, without mayo. It’s nice to
know there is now a new option, which is a lot tastier in my opinion that I can
now choose from.
According to McDonald’s the Sweet Chili Chicken wrap is: The unique mix of juicy, grilled chicken
breast filet, crisp cucumber slices, spring greens, shredded lettuce, all
drizzled with sweet chili and creamy garlic sauce, wrapped in a warm flour
tortilla.
The fact that there are actual VEGETABLES in a McDonald’s
food item purely excites me! Between the
vegetables, the grilled chicken and the delicious blend of sauce (Sweet chili
with a creamy garlic sauce – which reminds me of ranch) is just a straight up
homerun. The sandwich was delicious
(granted it took me 2 trips to actually GET the correct sandwich – originally they
assumed my grilled request meant crispy).
The grilled variety, as is, without substitutions is 9 points plus and
PURE deliciousness. It’s actually quite
massive and VERY filling for something you’d get at McDonald’s.
There are 2 other varieties available – both of which come in
grilled or crispy (fried) varieties. The
other two flavor choices are a Premium McWrap Chicken & Bacon and a Premium
McWrap Chicken & Ranch. I have not
tried either of these varieties but I typically wouldn’t order either of those
anyway because I’m more of a sweet chili fan on chicken sandwiches.
Nonetheless – great new addition, McDonald’s! And bravo for it being relatively health conscious!
QUESTION:
Have you tried any of the new McDonald’s Premium McWraps? If so, which one is your favorite?
