Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced

1 ripe avocado, mashed until smooth

1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream if preferred)

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard for a tangy kick

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1/4 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped for sweetness and crunch

1/4 cup celery, finely chopped for added freshness

1/4 cup green onions, sliced thinly for a mild onion flavor

4 large whole wheat tortillas or wraps, for a wholesome base

Fresh lettuce leaves (e.g., romaine or spinach) for a crisp garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken Salad: In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the shredded or diced chicken with the mashed avocado, Greek yogurt, lime juice, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and onion powder. Use a fork to ensure everything is mixed well and creamy.

    Incorporate Vegetables: Gently fold in the finely chopped red bell pepper, celery, and sliced green onions into the chicken mixture. Stir until the ingredients are evenly distributed. Season the blend with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, adjusting seasoning based on preference.

      Assemble the Wraps: On a clean, flat surface, lay a tortilla flat. Place a few crisp lettuce leaves in the center of the tortilla, creating a fresh barrier. Scoop a generous portion of the avocado chicken salad mixture onto the lettuce, ensuring it's centered for an even wrap.

        Wrap It Up: Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla towards the center. Starting from the bottom, tightly roll the tortilla upwards to form a neat wrap. If needed, secure the wrap with a toothpick to hold it together during serving.

          Serve: Repeat the assembly process with the remaining tortillas and filling. Using a sharp knife, slice each wrap in half diagonally for a visually appealing presentation. Serve immediately for the freshest taste, or wrap tightly in foil for a delicious meal on-the-go.
