Here comes our chicken avocado spinach wrap and who doesn’t love a good wrap? Especially when you stuff it with things like shredded chicken, creamy avocado, tomatoes, spring mix lettuce and toasted sunflower seeds. Toss some of our absolute favorite lemon basil dressing and wrap everything up in a spinach tortilla….booya!
Wraps are so easy to throw together and you can get creative with the ingredients you choose to stuff into your tortilla. Our favorite is the chicken avocado spinach wrap. They are also a good alternative for your own lunch or school lunches when you’ve hit your sandwich limit!
Our favorite is the chicken avocado spinach wrap. There are so many different types of tortillas available now as well like sun-dried tomato, herb, spinach, or there are even gluten free options. For our chicken avocado spinach wrap, you can play around with the different flavored tortillas or just stick to a plain flour tortilla. You can’t go wrong with whatever you choose.
We happen to love these spinach tortillas and the combination that we created to stuff inside this wrap is absolutely delicious. It’s also important to point out that the color combo is on point with the green spinach tortilla, purple cabbage, yellow tomato, white chicken and light green avocado. I don’t know about you but I always enjoy eating food that looks and tastes good, so a pretty wrap it is for the win!!
Here’s another win. Cook up a little extra chicken when you make our Pan Roasted Chicken with Purple Potatoes and use the leftovers for these delicious wraps.
