1. Grilling the Chicken: Start by marinating the chicken breasts in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper for at least 30 minutes. This will infuse flavor and keep the meat juicy. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before shredding.

Ingredients
  

2 whole wheat tortillas

1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded (preferably grilled)

1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped

1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup cucumber, diced

1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (or nutritional yeast for a vegan option)

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (plain) or a dairy-free yogurt alternative

2 tablespoons Caesar dressing (preferably light or homemade)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional: sliced avocado for added creaminess

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: If you haven't already, grill and shred the chicken breast. Make sure it’s seasoning with a touch of salt and pepper to enhance flavor.

    Create the Dressing: In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, Caesar dressing, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until evenly blended. This will serve as a healthier alternative to traditional Caesar dressing.

      Mix the Salad Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, and grated Parmesan cheese.

        Combine Everything: Add the shredded chicken and the dressing mixture to the salad bowl. Gently toss all ingredients until the salad is well-coated in the dressing.

          Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the whole wheat tortillas flat. Evenly distribute the chicken Caesar salad onto each tortilla, leaving some space at the edges for wrapping. If you’re using avocado, add slices on top of the filling for creaminess.

            Wrap It Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom up to create a sealed wrap. Repeat for the second tortilla.

              Serve: Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy these delicious, healthy wraps with extra dressing or a side of fresh fruit if desired.
