Chicken Pesto Wraps combine tender chicken, fresh vegetables, and flavorful pesto in whole wheat tortillas for an easy, satisfying lunch.

  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 wraps

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cooked chicken, cubed

  • 4 tablespoons pesto

  • 4 whole wheat tortillas

  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach leaves

  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips

  • 1 medium carrot, sliced into thin strips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: In a small bowl, toss the cooked chicken with pesto until evenly coated.

  2. Layer the Vegetables: Place one tortilla on a flat surface. Arrange one-quarter of the spinach in the center, followed by one-quarter of the bell pepper and carrot strips.

  3. Add the Chicken: Spoon one-quarter of the pesto chicken over the vegetables.

  4. Roll the Wrap: Fold both sides of the tortilla inward. Fold the bottom over the filling, tuck it in tightly, and roll until secure.

  5. Repeat and Serve: Assemble the remaining wraps with the rest of the ingredients. Serve immediately or wrap for later.

Notes

  • Use leftover chicken: This recipe is an easy way to repurpose cooked chicken from a previous dinner.

  • Try rotisserie chicken: Store-bought rotisserie chicken makes preparation even faster.

  • Warm the tortillas: Heat tortillas briefly in a skillet or microwave to make them softer and easier to roll without tearing.

  • Keep the filling balanced: Avoid overfilling the tortillas so they stay secure and easy to eat.
