Hello Friends! How is your week going? We have been enjoying walks and bike rides to the beach. This time of year the beach is truly wonderful, although it does tend to get a little crowded.
Today I am sharing a delicious chicken wrap recipe that is so perfect for lunches or dinners and is easy to make. I also consider it a healthy meal idea, because it is filled with vegetables and chicken with just a few carbs in the tortilla. You can also use a low carb wrap if you like.
I can't even tell you how good this recipe is, but it is just filled with flavor and spice.
You can also change up the vegetables if you wish. These are the vegetable that I typically use, but use whatever is available and on sale at your local grocer or farmers market.
Chicken Wrap Ingredients
List of main ingredients.
Chicken– I use chicken tenders or chicken breasts for this recipe, but you can use chicken thighs too!
Avocado – I personally love the avocado in this recipe, but of course, you can omit if you want.
Tomatoes - You can use any variety you want in this recipe, even cherry. I typically use Roma or on the vine tomatoes.
Lettuce - You can use just about any kind of lettuce that you have. I use Romaine and get great results.
How to make Spicy Chicken Tortilla Wraps
- When wrapping the tortilla, lay it flat on a plate.
- Add ingredients in the center from top to 1" from the bottom.
- Folt over 1" the bottom of the tortilla toward the center.
- Fold over the left and the right sides of the tortilla towards the center.
Don't forget to bookmark this recipe. This recipe makes two wraps but it can be doubled or tripled if needed. You can store the wraps in the refrigerator if you make them ahead of time.
