Heating Tortillas
- Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, just until they’re pliable.
Assembly
- Lay a tortilla flat on a plate. Spoon a generous amount of the creamy chicken mixture onto the center of the tortilla. Top with fresh veggies for added crunch.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll the bottom up to create a tight wrap.
Serving

Notes
You can substitute cream cheese with ricotta or cottage cheese for a lighter option. For a spicy kick, add hot sauce or diced jalapeños to the creamy mixture. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. To reheat, use a microwave or warm in a skillet.
