Scale
Proteins and Wrap
- 1 grilled chicken breast, seasoned and sliced
- 3 slices smoked turkey bacon, cooked and chopped
- 2 whole wheat tortillas
Fresh Components
- 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1/4 cup shredded plant-based cheese
Dressing
- 3 tablespoons plant-based mayonnaise (natural)
- 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (natural)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (natural)
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the grilled chicken: Season the chicken breast with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Grill over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes per side until cooked through and juicy. Let it rest before slicing thinly.
- Cook the smoked turkey bacon: In a non-stick pan, cook the smoked turkey bacon until crispy. Drain excess fat on paper towels and chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Make the dressing: Whisk together plant-based mayonnaise, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, fresh lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the wrap: Lay a whole wheat tortilla flat and spread a generous layer of dressing evenly. Add chopped romaine lettuce, sliced grilled chicken, smoked turkey bacon pieces, and shredded plant-based cheese. Roll tightly to secure all fillings.
- Serve and enjoy: Cut the wrap diagonally for presentation and serve immediately to enjoy the freshest flavors and textures.
Notes
- Warm tortillas slightly before assembling to improve pliability and prevent tearing.
- Apply dressing sparingly to keep the lettuce crisp and avoid sogginess.
- Rest the grilled chicken before slicing for juicy, tender pieces.
- Balance textures by combining crunchy bacon with soft cheese and tender chicken.
- Double wrap the tortilla for larger fillings to ensure the wrap stays intact while eating.
