🛒 Ingredients

  • 🌯 2 large flour tortillas (whole wheat or regular)
  • 🥗 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 🐓 1 cup grilled chicken breast, sliced or shredded
  • 🧀 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 🥄 2 tbsp Caesar dressing (light or regular)
  • 🌿 Optional: Croutons for crunch
  • 🍋 Optional: A squeeze of fresh lemon juice

🍳 Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients:
    • Wash and chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Slice the grilled chicken into thin strips or shred it into smaller pieces.
  2. Mix the Salad:
    • In a large bowl, toss the romaine lettuce with Caesar dressing until evenly coated. Add the sliced chicken and Parmesan cheese. If desired, toss in croutons for added texture.
  3. Warm the Tortillas:
    • Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 20–30 seconds per side or microwave them for 10 seconds to make them more pliable.
  4. Assemble the Wraps:
    • Place the salad mixture in the center of each tortilla, leaving room around the edges for folding. Add a squeeze of lemon juice for extra brightness if desired.
  5. Wrap It Up:
    • Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom to form a wrap. Slice in half for easy serving.
  6. Serve Immediately:
    • Enjoy as a light, portable lunch or pair with a small cup of soup or fresh fruit for a more substantial meal.
