Wrap Ingredients
- 2 large whole wheat tortillas
- 1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded or sliced
- 1 large avocado, sliced or mashed
- 1/2 cup lettuce, shredded
- 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (optional)
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing or your favorite sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the tortillas: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface to ensure they are easy to fill and roll.
- Apply avocado: Spread the sliced or mashed avocado evenly over the center of each tortilla, providing a creamy base for the wrap.
- Add fillings: Layer the shredded chicken, shredded lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and shredded cheese (if using) evenly on top of the avocado for a balanced mix of flavors and textures.
- Season and dress: Drizzle ranch dressing or your preferred sauce over the fillings and season with salt and pepper to enhance the flavor.
- Roll the wraps: Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly to secure the fillings inside, making it easy to eat.
- Serve: Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately for the freshest taste, or wrap them in foil or parchment paper for a convenient on-the-go meal.
Notes
- Use cooked chicken breast leftovers or rotisserie chicken to speed up preparation.
- The ranch dressing can be substituted with hummus, Greek yogurt, or vinaigrette for variation.
- For added crunch, consider adding sliced cucumbers or bell peppers.
- Wraps can be made in advance and stored refrigerated for up to 24 hours, but are best enjoyed fresh to prevent sogginess.
- Whole wheat tortillas increase fiber content but you can opt for gluten-free wraps if needed.
