Ingredients you’ll need

- 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped

- 1/2 cup croutons
- 4 large whole wheat tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: sliced cherry tomatoes for garnish
How to prepare this wrap
Start by combining the shredded chicken, chopped romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and croutons in a large bowl. Toss everything together until the dressing evenly coats all the ingredients.
Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting as needed to enhance the flavors. Lay out the whole wheat tortillas on a flat surface, ensuring they’re ready to hold the filling.
Spoon equal portions of the chicken Caesar salad mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Fold the sides of each tortilla inward, then roll it tightly from the bottom to the top to form a wrap.
For a clean presentation, slice the wraps in half diagonally before serving. Optionally, garnish with sliced cherry tomatoes for a pop of color and freshness.
Ingredient swaps you can try
If you don’t have croutons, try using crushed pita chips for a similar crunch. For a lighter option, swap Caesar dressing with Greek yogurt-based Caesar dressing.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use a different type of tortilla? Yes, you can substitute whole wheat tortillas with spinach or gluten-free tortillas to suit your preferences.
How do I keep the wraps from getting soggy? To prevent sogginess, assemble the wraps just before serving or store the filling and tortillas separately until ready to eat.
How to store leftovers
Wrap the prepared chicken Caesar salad wraps tightly in plastic wrap or foil. Store them in the fridge for up to 2 days to maintain freshness.
For best results, reheat the wraps briefly in a microwave or enjoy them cold straight from the fridge.
