Just in time for January’s obligatory dietary cleanup, Unleavened Fresh Kitchen has opened a location in Southlake Town Square. The Dallas-based, fast-casual eatery serves fit fare for breakfast, lunch and dinner, without skimping on satisfying taste. Take the Weekender Wrap for example – with buttermilk-drenched, fried chicken breasts doused in ranch dressing, the dish is far from bird food. But it’s also gluten-free and packed with veggies like carrots, green leaf lettuce and tomatoes. Not a fan of “wrap”? — this dish can also be served in a bowl on a bed of greens. Make your own with the recipe here, or visit the location any day of the week. While you’re at it, order a glass of wine or beer and toast to balance and good health in 2018.

1 1/2 cups gluten-free flour

2 cups green leaf lettuce, chopped
1/4 cup tomatoes, small dice

½ cup bacon, cooked and chopped
¼ cup green onions, small chopped
Instructions:
1. Season gluten-free flour with salt and pepper.
