Ingredients
  

2 large chicken breasts, grilled and sliced

4 whole wheat tortillas or wraps

4 cups romaine lettuce, chopped

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup Caesar dressing (homemade or store-bought)

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon black pepper

¼ teaspoon salt

Optional: croutons for added crunch

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken: Begin by seasoning the grilled chicken slices with garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. If you're using leftover chicken, make sure it's warmed through before slicing.

    Mix the Salad: In a very large mixing bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, grated Parmesan cheese, and Caesar dressing. Gently toss everything together until all ingredients are frosted with dressing, ensuring even distribution.

      Assemble the Wraps: Lay one tortilla flat on a clean, dry surface. Spoon a generous helping of the Caesar salad mixture onto the lower third of the tortilla, leaving a bit of space around the edges.

        Add Chicken: Layer the sliced grilled chicken over the salad mixture. If you enjoy a bit of extra crunch, sprinkle some croutons on top of the chicken.

          Wrap It Up: Carefully fold the sides of the tortilla inward towards the center, then start rolling it tightly from the bottom up to form a burrito-style wrap. Make sure the filling is securely enclosed within the tortilla.

            Serve: Position the wraps seam side down on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut each wrap in half diagonally for easy handling. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color.

              Enjoy: Dive into your delightful Chicken Caesar Salad Wraps, perfect for a refreshing lunch or light dinner! Feel free to serve with extra Caesar dressing on the side for dipping.
