Instructions

Prepare Dressing (optional): If you want to use homemade Caesar dressing, prepare it first before assembling the wrap.
Chop Chicken: Cut cooked chicken breasts into small, bite-sized pieces to make them easy to eat in the wrap.
Chop Lettuce: Chop the romaine lettuce into small bite-sized pieces for a crisp texture and easy wrapping.
Grate Cheese: Finely grate or shave the parmesan cheese to evenly distribute flavor throughout the wrap.
Combine Filling: In a medium bowl, mix together the chopped chicken, romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, parmesan cheese, and a small handful of croutons or crispy jalapeño pieces. Toss gently to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
Assemble Wrap: Lay the large wrap or tortilla flat. Spoon the filling onto the center. Fold the bottom edge over the filling first, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly to secure everything inside. Slice in half if desired for easier handling.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken for a quick shortcut.
To make it vegetarian, omit chicken and add grilled vegetables or chickpeas.
Substitute Caesar dressing with a low-fat or dairy-free option if preferred.
For extra crunch and heat, add crispy jalapeño pieces instead of croutons.
Wraps can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
