15 Minute Buffalo Chicken Wraps
Author Chris at Empty Nest Eats
Yield 4 wraps
Ingredients
- 2 cups chopped rotisserie chicken
- 2-4 tablespoons (to taste) Sweet Baby Rays Buffalo Wing sauce
- 2 cups shredded lettuce (iceberg, Romaine or any kind)
- 1 ½ cup shredded carrots (about 2-3 large carrots)
- 6 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese (plus a little extra for sprinkling, step 4)
- 6 tablespoons yogurt-based blue cheese dressing
- 4 (10-inch) whole grain tortillas
- optional – celery sticks
Instructions
- Wash and chop the lettuce. Use a box grater to grate the carrots.
- In a small bowl, combine the blue cheese dressing and the crumbled blue cheese. Mix until combined.
- In another bowl, combine the chopped chicken and buffalo wing sauce. Stir until chicken is coated.
- To assemble the wrap, spread 1 ½ tablespoons of the dressing/blue cheese mixture down the middle third of the tortilla. Arrange the shredded lettuce, buffalo chicken, and shredded carrot on top of the dressing/blue cheese. If desired sprinkle a little extra cheese on top.
- Carefully wrap up the tortilla, tucking in the ends. Slice the wrap down the middle. Serve with celery sticks on the side.
Notes
- If you don’t care for blue cheese substitute a yogurt-based Ranch dressing use shredded cheddar cheese instead of the crumbled blue cheese.
- This recipe is high in sodium. To reduce the sodium by more than half use baked chicken (not injected with a sodium solution), and a lower sodium tortilla.
- Make these wraps gluten free by using a gluten free tortilla/wrap.
