ThemedLunchAmericanWrapsPicnicMeal prepSalad
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken breast
- 2 medium crisp apples (Honeycrisp or Gala), diced
- 1 1/2 cups red seedless grapes, halved
- 2 celery stalks, finely diced
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 large flour tortillas or wraps
- 8 butter lettuce leaves
- 1/3 cup toasted sliced almonds
Instructions
- 1Dice the crisp apples and halve the grapes, then place them in a large mixing bowl with the shredded chicken.
- 2Add the diced celery, sliced green onions, and chopped parsley to the bowl and toss gently so the fruit and chicken are evenly mixed.
- 3In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
- 4Pour the dressing over the chicken-fruit mixture and fold until every piece is lightly coated without crushing the grapes.
- 5Taste and adjust seasoning with a pinch more salt or a squeeze of lemon if the apples need brighter lift.
- 6Warm the tortillas for about 15 seconds per side in a dry skillet over medium heat so they become pliable and easy to roll.
- 7Lay two butter lettuce leaves down the center of each tortilla to create a crisp moisture barrier.
- 8Spoon a generous mound of the apple grape chicken salad onto the lettuce, then scatter toasted almonds over the top for crunch.
- 9Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom up into a secure wrap.
- 10Slice each wrap in half on a slight diagonal if serving family-style, or wrap snugly in parchment for packing.
- 11Chill any leftover filling in an airtight container for up to two days; assemble fresh wraps just before eating so the tortillas stay soft.
- 12Serve immediately with extra grapes on the side for a shareable weekend lunch spread.
