Instructions
Creating Quick Chicken Avocado Wraps is straightforward. Just follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: If you haven’t done so, shred the cooked chicken and set it aside.
2. Mash the Avocado: In a bowl, scoop out the flesh of the avocado. Mash it with a fork and mix in the lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Add Veggies: Fold in diced tomatoes, corn, and red onion into the mashed avocado. This adds fabulous texture and flavor.
4. Lay Out Tortillas: Place your tortillas flat on a clean surface or plate.
5. Spread the Avocado Mixture: Evenly distribute the avocado and veggie mixture onto each tortilla, leaving a little space around the edges.
6. Add Chicken: Top the avocado mixture with shredded chicken, dividing it evenly among the wraps.
7. Add Greens: Place a handful of mixed greens over the chicken for added crunch.
8. Roll the Tortillas: Starting from one end, tightly roll each tortilla, tucking the ends in as you go.
9. Cut the Wraps: Slice each wrap in half diagonally for easy eating.
10. Serve and Enjoy: Plate your wraps and, if you like, add a side of Greek yogurt or light ranch for dipping.
Really, that’s all it takes to make these amazing wraps!
