Ingredients
Scale
Wraps
- 2 large whole wheat tortillas
Filling
- 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)
Condiments & Seasoning
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing or your favorite sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare Tortillas: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface to make it easier to assemble the wraps evenly.
- Spread Avocado: Evenly spread the sliced or mashed avocado over the center of each tortilla, providing a creamy base layer that adds flavor and moisture.
- Add Fillings: Layer the shredded chicken breast, shredded lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and shredded cheese (if using) on top of the avocado to build the wrap’s hearty filling.
- Add Dressing and Season: Drizzle ranch dressing or your favorite sauce over the layered fillings. Season with salt and pepper to enhance the flavors.
- Roll the Wraps: Fold in the sides of each tortilla and then roll tightly to encase the fillings securely, forming neat wraps.
- Slice and Serve: Cut each wrap in half and serve immediately for the best texture, or wrap in foil or parchment paper for easy meals on the go.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, substitute ranch dressing with chipotle mayo or sriracha sauce.
- Use gluten-free tortillas if you need a gluten-free option.
- Leftover cooked chicken from previous meals works perfectly to speed up preparation.
- Adding fresh herbs like cilantro or basil can add extra freshness to the wrap.
- To make it vegetarian, replace chicken with roasted chickpeas or grilled tofu.
