Ingredients
Scale
Protein
- 2 cooked chicken breasts (sliced or shredded)
Produce
- 2 ripe avocados (sliced)
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
Other
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing (or your favorite dressing)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Cook and slice or shred the chicken breast. Slice the avocados and remove their pits. Dice the tomatoes and shred the lettuce if it isn’t pre-shredded.
- Warm the Tortillas: Place the flour tortillas on a microwave-safe plate and microwave them for 10-15 seconds until they are warm and pliable, making them easier to wrap.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay the warmed tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute a layer of shredded lettuce, then place the sliced or shredded chicken on top. Arrange the avocado slices over the chicken, followed by the diced tomatoes and shredded cheddar cheese.
- Season and Dress: Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste over the fillings. Drizzle the ranch dressing or your preferred dressing evenly over the top.
- Wrap Up: Fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling. Starting from the bottom edge, tightly roll up the tortillas to enclose the fillings securely.
- Serve: Place each wrap seam-side down on a serving plate to keep them closed. Slice each wrap diagonally in half for easier eating, if desired.
Notes
- For a healthier option, substitute flour tortillas with whole wheat or spinach tortillas.
- You can use grilled chicken for added flavor.
- Feel free to swap ranch dressing with Caesar or a vinaigrette for different taste profiles.
- To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free tortillas.
- Avocados should be ripe but firm to prevent the wrap from becoming soggy.
