   When I was that age I found it really easy to make wraps. You can defenately put some healthy stuff in it, like lettuce, tomatoes and even fruit like mango.
   What I really like is a wrap with lettuce, chicken seasoned with seasoning salt (This you can also keep it the fridge if you don't have time to prepare), ranch sauce and a bit of cheese. But of course you could also make more spicy wraps by changing the cheese and ranch sauce for chilli sauce. These are just a few suggestions, but of course this is a really easy dish to experiment as well.
   I hope this gives you an idea, and hopefully your parents will like it as well. However, if you have time, I would suggest to look on internet for some healthy dishes as well, because there is defenately loads of good food to find there. good luck with it.

   CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE JAMBALAYA
   3 lbsChicken portions (I used skinless ,boneless breasts)cut into cubes
   3 Tbsp. Butter or margarine
   1 lg. Onion -roughly chopped in chunks
   3 stocks Celery -roughly chopped in 1" pieces
   1 lg green pepper - roughly chopped
   1 clove garlic - chopped
   ½ - 1 tsp cayenne pepper
   ½ - 1 tsp. Black pepper
   ½ - 1 tsp. white pepper
   1 cup uncooked rice(not minute rice)
   1 - 14 oz. can tomatoes- chopped with juice
   6 oz - smoked sausage cut into ½” slices(I use Italian Hot sausage)
   3 cups chicken stock (oxo cubes are fine)

   Melt butter in a large saucepan, and fry the onions slowly ,til start to brown slightly, add celery, green pepper and garlic and cook for a couple minutes. Then add the remaining and mix well. Bring to boil then reduce heat and simmer until chicken is cooked and rice has absorbed the liquid. (If you need more liquid add a little water). It’s ready when rice is tender and chicken is cooked. Enjoy!

   If you don’t have white pepper add a tiny bit more of the other peppers. If you don't like spicy then don't add the pepper and use mild sausages.
   Cooking time = 20 - 25 mins.

   Anything you cook at home is more healthy than those microwaveable dinners or take-out.

   Cook some boneless skinless chicken breasts in a large skillet with a little oil about 4 minutes per side on medium heat. Add one chopped onion, cook briefly and add 1 cup of chicken broth. Cook about 3 minutes then add one jar of spaghetti sauce. Turn heat to low, cover and let simmer until chicken is done, approximately 20 minutes. Meanwhile, cook some pasta following directions on the box. Drain the pasta and serve the chicken and sauce over the pasta. Serve with a bagged salad and Italian bread.
