Our Recipe of the Month is a quick and easy lunch for parents and kids alike. #recipeofthemonth
Turkey Wraps (makes 2)
Ingredients
• 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 2 (10-inch) flour tortilla
• 4 romaine or green leaf lettuce leaves
• 1 tablespoon whole cranberry sauce
• 4 slices deli turkey
• 4 slices Havarti or Swiss cheese, halved
• 1/2 medium tomato, sliced
1. Lay one tortilla flat on a cutting board and spread a layer of cream cheese all the way to the edges. Layer 2 lettuce leaves down the middle of the tortilla.
2. Layer two slices of turkey and 2 pieces of Swiss cheese on top of the lettuce. Top with several slices of tomatoes.
3. Starting at one end of the tortilla, roll tightly towards the filling. Continue rolling until the filling is tightly wrapped and the cream cheese holds the rollup together.
4. Wrap each tortilla rollup tightly in plastic wrap.
5. Chill the wrapped rollups in the refrigerator until serving time. To serve, trim any unfilled ends away. Slice each tortilla into 8 equal pieces.
Enjoy!

We had an amazing time at our annual staff retreat yesterday! We had a series of educational workshops, enjoyed lunch from La Palapa, and just had fun spending time together.
We also celebrated a LOT of staff milestones this year: a total of 22. Twelve staff members marked 5 years on #teammcc, four reached 10 years with us, and five employees have spent 15 years and counting with MCC! One of our dentists, Dr. Tad Ulatowski, reached his 20th anniversary of working for us and caring for our community. Truly impressive.
While the rest of us were having fun, our IT staff were moving hundreds of pounds of equipment from our Sequoia Circle site to to South Street, so our servers will be powered by our new generator if the power goes out. Our computers were working perfectly this morning. Thanks to our IT staff and everyone on #teammcc for bringing the #bestcareanywhere to the Coast!
