Ingredients
Scale
Wrap Ingredients
- 1 cooked chicken breast, sliced or shredded
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced
- 2 flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2-3 tablespoons ranch dressing (or your favorite dressing)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Slice or shred the cooked chicken breast. Slice the avocado and remove the pit. Dice the tomatoes and shred the lettuce if necessary to prepare all fillings.
- Warm Tortillas: Place the flour tortillas on a microwave-safe plate and warm them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to make them more pliable for wrapping.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay the warmed tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread a layer of shredded lettuce on each tortilla, leaving a margin around edges. Top with sliced or shredded chicken, then layer avocado slices, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly.
- Season and Dress: Sprinkle salt and pepper over the fillings to taste. Drizzle ranch dressing or your preferred dressing over the top to add moisture and flavor.
- Wrap Up: Carefully fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling and roll tightly from the bottom to enclose the ingredients securely, forming a neat wrap.
- Serve: Place the wraps seam-side down on a plate. For easier eating, slice each wrap diagonally in half if desired and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use cooked chicken breast from leftovers or rotisserie chicken for quicker preparation.
- For a healthier alternative, use whole wheat or low-carb tortillas.
- Customize with any favorite dressing such as Caesar, honey mustard, or vinaigrette.
- Add extra veggies like cucumber or bell peppers for more crunch.
- To make it gluten-free, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps or lettuce leaves.
