Description

A quick, portable lunch wrap featuring classic Caesar salad flavors wrapped in a warm tortilla, perfect for meal prep.


Ingredients

Scale

3 cups chopped romaine lettuce
1 1/2 cups chopped cooked chicken, (grilled, fried, or rotisserie)
1/3 cup Caesar dressing
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup homemade croutons
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, (to taste)
4 flour tortillas or wraps, (10-inch)


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, chopped chicken, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and croutons. Use tongs to toss well. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Taste and add more dressing, if desired. Set aside.
  2. In a large pan, warm the tortillas over medium heat for about 15 to 30 seconds per side, just until they are pliable. Place on a plate and cover with a kitchen towel to keep them warm. Alternatively, you can warm them in the microwave in between paper towels for 15 to 30 seconds.
  3. Place the tortillas on a clean surface. Divide the Caesar salad mixture between the flour tortillas, placing it in the center of the tortilla. Fold in opposite sides of each tortilla, then roll up, burrito-style. You can stick a toothpick in the center to help keep them closed. Cut in half or serve the wraps whole.

Notes

  • For best meal prep, store the salad mixture (without dressing) and tortillas separately. Add dressing and assemble just before eating to prevent sogginess.
  • Warming the tortilla is essential for flexibility and prevents cracking.
  • Substitute chickpeas or lentils for a vegetarian option. Use a gluten-free wrap for a gluten-free meal.
