Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 pieces cooked chicken breasts, shredded (rotisserie or poached)
  • 1 piece ripe avocado, sliced
  • 4 pieces whole wheat tortillas (8–10 inch)
  • 1 cup lettuce, chopped (romaine or butter lettuce recommended)
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt or mayonnaise (Greek yogurt keeps it lighter)
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice (optional) (a squeeze freshens the whole wrap)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken and Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise). Add a squeeze of lime juice if using. Season with salt and pepper and mix until the chicken is evenly coated.
  2. Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon one-quarter of the chicken mixture down the center of the tortilla, forming a log shape.
  3. Arrange avocado slices on top of the chicken. Sprinkle with chopped lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and a few rings of thinly sliced red onion.
  4. Fold the short sides of the tortilla toward the center to contain the filling. Then roll tightly from the long side to form a compact wrap.
  5. Repeat steps 2–4 for the remaining tortillas and filling.
  6. Slice each wrap in half on the diagonal and serve immediately.

Notes

Assemble wraps right before eating for optimal texture. If making ahead, store uncut wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Leftover filling can be stored for up to 3 days. Avoid freezing assembled wraps due to avocado texture degradation.
