Wrapped in soft tortillas, they are easy to assemble and can be customized with your favorite ingredients. Whether you enjoy them as a meal on the go or serve them at a casual gathering, these wraps are both delicious and satisfying.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cooked, shredded or chopped chicken breast
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter option)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper. Stir until well mixed.
- Add the shredded chicken, celery, and red onion to the dressing mixture. Stir until the chicken is evenly coated. If desired, stir in sliced almonds and dried cranberries for added texture and sweetness.
- Lay a tortilla flat and place a couple of lettuce leaves in the center. Spoon the chicken salad mixture onto the lettuce.
- Add sliced tomatoes and avocado, if using.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top, creating a wrap.
