CHICKEN
1 or 2 large chicken breasts, boneless and skinless (cooked, cooled and chopped small)

1 3/4 c baby spinach (lightly chopped)

4 large tomato tortillas
4 large whole wheat tortillas
4 large spinach tortillas
OPTIONAL:
pecans (chopped), blue cheese (crumbled), shredded lettuce
cooked crumbled bacon
shaved ham and thinly sliced swiss cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Combine the Spread ingredients together. Set aside.
  • 2. Cook the chicken, cool it, chop it up. Set it aside.
  • 3. Chop the onions, Craisins, and spinach. Set aside. Crumble the feta cheese. Set aside.
  • 4. Spread the Spread on each of the tortillas. Sprinkle some of each of the toppings on each of the tortillas.
  • 5. Very tightly (yet gently) roll up the tortillas. Snuggly wrap them with Seran Wrap. Refrigerate for 2 hours.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, fresh cranberries: Look for cranberries that are plump and firm, with a deep red color. Avoid any cranberries that are soft, bruised, or have blemishes.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the chicken: This will help to prevent the chicken from shredding and will make it easier to slice into thin strips.
  • Chill the chicken salad before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and will make the chicken salad more refreshing.
  • Use a variety of greens: This will add color and texture to the chicken salad roll-ups. Some good options include spinach, romaine lettuce, and arugula.
  • Get creative with your toppings: In addition to the suggested toppings in the recipe, you can also try adding sliced almonds, crumbled bacon, or grated Parmesan cheese.
