Classic Caesar Wrap
If you love the classic flavors of a Caesar salad and want a portable and easy-to-make version, this Caesar Wrap recipe is just what you need. It retains all the deliciousness of the salad but comes in a handy wrap form, making it ideal for a quick lunch on the go, an outdoor picnic, or a simple dinner that doesn’t skimp on flavor. Let’s get wrapping!
Ingredients:
- 2 large flour tortillas
- 2 cups of romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1/2 cup of cooked chicken breast, sliced or shredded
- 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese, shaved or grated
- 2 tablespoons of Caesar dressing
- 1/4 cup of croutons, crushed
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions:
- Lay out the flour tortillas on a flat surface.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of Caesar dressing on each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Divide the chopped romaine lettuce between the two tortillas, placing it on top of the dressing.
- Add the cooked chicken breast on top of the lettuce.
- Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the chicken and lettuce.
- Add the crushed croutons for an added crunch.
- Season with salt and pepper to your liking.
- Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to enclose the filling. Cut in half diagonally, if desired.
- Serve immediately with a lemon wedge on the side for an extra zing if you like.
Note: To make it healthier, opt for a whole wheat tortilla and a light Caesar dressing. You can also add more greens or other vegetables such as sliced cucumbers or bell peppers for additional nutrients and crunch.
Additional Tips:
- For a vegetarian option, skip the chicken and add more vegetables or tofu.
- Prepare wraps in advance and store them in the fridge, wrapped in foil or plastic wrap for a convenient grab-and-go meal option.
- For a hot wrap, after rolling, grill the wrap in a panini press or on a skillet until the tortilla is crisp and the inside is warm.
This Caesar Wrap is a tasty and flexible recipe that can accommodate whatever you have on hand or suit your dietary preferences while providing the comforting flavors of a classic Caesar salad with the convenience of a wrap.
