Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups (250g) cooked and shredded or grilled chicken – Use rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • 4 large tortillas (whole wheat or regular) – Soft and flexible for easy wrapping.
  • 2 cups (120g) chopped romaine lettuce – Fresh and crunchy.
  • ½ cup (50g) grated Parmesan cheese – Adds a bold, nutty flavor.
  • ½ cup (120ml) Caesar dressing – Use homemade or store-bought.
  • 1/4 cup (30g) croutons, crushed (optional) – For extra crunch.
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Optional Additions:

  • ½ avocado, sliced – Adds creaminess and healthy fats.
  • ¼ cup (30g) crispy bacon bits – For a smoky, savory flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice – Brightens up the flavors.

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Chicken:
    If using raw chicken, grill or pan-sear until fully cooked, then slice or shred. If using pre-cooked chicken, warm it up slightly for better texture.
  • Assemble the Wrap:
    Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread 1-2 tablespoons of Caesar dressing evenly across the center.
  • Layer the Ingredients:
    Add a handful of chopped romaine lettuce, followed by the cooked chicken, Parmesan cheese, and optional croutons.
  • Add Extra Flavor:
    If using avocado, bacon, or lemon juice, add them on top of the other ingredients.
  • Roll the Wrap:
    Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom up. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
  • Serve and Enjoy:
    Slice in half diagonally and serve immediately or wrap in foil for a grab-and-go meal.

Notes

  • Make it Gluten-Free: Use gluten-free tortillas and croutons.
  • Storage: Keep assembled wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
  • Meal Prep: Store ingredients separately and assemble just before eating to keep everything fresh.
  • Protein Swaps: Substitute chicken with grilled shrimp, tofu, or turkey for variety.
