CHICKEN SALSA WRAPS

A versatile recipe, add other veg, or make it hotter by adding chili if you like. I serve this with a green salad. For a lower fat, but just as tasty meal use non fat greek style yoghurt instead of Sour cream. Add a little lemon juice to the yoghurt for a sour taste.

4 ounces cream cheese, softened (reduced fat)
4 tablespoons salsa (homemade or prepared)
4 flour tortillas (10-inch)
8 ounces baked chicken breasts

  • Bake chicken breast for 30 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from oven to cool.
  • Cut chicken into 1/4 inch strips.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Tortillas: Opt for large burrito tortillas or soft taco shells to ensure they can hold all the fillings without breaking.
  • Prepare the Chicken Ahead of Time: Save time by cooking the chicken in advance. You can boil, bake, or grill it based on your preference.
  • Shred the Chicken: Use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces. This makes it easier to incorporate into the wraps.
  • Select Your Salsa Wisely: Choose a salsa that complements the other ingredients. If you prefer a milder flavor, use a mild or medium salsa. For a spicier kick, opt for a hot salsa.
  • Don't Overfill the Wraps: While you want to pack in all the delicious fillings, avoid overstuffing the wraps. This will make them difficult to fold and eat.
  • Add Sauces and Toppings: Don't be afraid to experiment with different sauces and toppings. Guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, and chopped cilantro are all great options.
