Ingredients

• 2 large high-fiber or protein-enriched flour tortillas (or spinach wraps)

• 2 cups pre-cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced (rotisserie or leftover baked chicken)

• 2 cups romaine lettuce, washed and chopped crisp

• 2–3 tbsp light or traditional Caesar dressing

• 1/4 cup grated or shaved Parmesan cheese

• 1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper

• Optional: 2 tbsp whole wheat croutons or crushed parm crisps for extra crunch

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Mix Fillings: In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken breast, chopped romaine lettuce, Parmesan cheese, cracked black pepper, and Caesar dressing. Toss until evenly coated.

2. Assemble: Lay wraps flat on a clean board or plate. Divide the chicken Caesar mixture evenly down the center of each wrap.

3. Roll & Tuck: Fold in the sides of each wrap, then roll tightly from bottom to top to secure the filling.

4. Slice & Serve: Slice diagonally down the center with a sharp knife and serve immediately alongside sliced fruit or crisp vegetables.

Prep & Storage Tips

• To Avoid Soggy Wraps: If packing for lunch, keep the salad mixture separate and roll the wrap right before eating.

• Protein Boost: Mix 1 tbsp of plain Greek yogurt into the Caesar dressing to increase protein while keeping fat low.
