Have you ever wished your chicken Caesar salad was portable? Us too! Turns out all we had to do was put it in a wrap, and now we can take our favorite salad with us everywhere– no mess!

  • Seasoned Chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are sliced into bite-sized pieces and seasoned with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper.
  • Lettuce: A classic Caesar is made with crunchy romaine lettuce. Iceberg also works.

Are Caesar wraps healthy for you?

These wraps are a great source of protein, potassium, and vitamin A. However, they are also high in fat, sodium, and calories, so enjoy them in moderation!

Can I make a wrap the night before?

Absolutely! This is a great meal prep recipe. Just wrap them in plastic wrap to help keep them fresh!

How do you make chicken wraps not soggy?

To minimize the sog factor, try placing a layer of undressed greens directly on the wrap first to act as a barrier between the filling and the tortilla.
