- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 ripe avocado, mashed
- 1 cup crisp lettuce (such as romaine or iceberg)

Instructions
- Prep your ingredients: Gather all your ingredients on the kitchen counter. Chop your lettuce into bite-sized pieces and squeeze lime or lemon juice over your avocado.
- Shred the chicken: If you haven’t already, shred or dice the cooked chicken.
- Mash the avocado: In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork. Add a dash of salt, pepper, and your choice of spices.
- Assemble the wrap: Lay a tortilla flat, spread an even layer of mashed avocado on the tortilla, leaving an inch around the edges.
- Add chicken and lettuce: Pile on the shredded chicken and the crisp lettuce.
- Fold and roll: Start folding the bottom of the tortilla up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly from the bottom up.
- Cut and serve: Slice the wrap in half diagonally for presentation and arrange with colorful veggies or fruit slices.
Notes
Serve with fresh salsa, crunchy tortilla chips, or a light Greek yogurt dip. Fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley are great additions.
