- Blend the dressing: Blend until smooth, adding water as needed to create a creamy but spreadable dressing.
- Warm the tortillas: Warm the tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave to make them easier to roll.
- Spread dressing: Spread Green Goddess dressing over each tortilla evenly.
- Assemble the wraps: Layer the chicken, spinach, cucumber, avocado, carrots, red onion, and feta down the center of each tortilla.
- Roll the wraps: Fold the sides inward, then tightly roll each tortilla into a wrap.
- Slice and serve: Slice in half and serve immediately for best freshness and flavor.
Notes
- Rotisserie chicken makes this recipe especially quick.
- Add sprouts, tomatoes, bell peppers, or shredded cabbage for extra crunch.
- Use dairy-free yogurt and omit the feta for a dairy-free version.
- For meal prep, keep the dressing separate and assemble the wraps just before eating.
- Whole-wheat tortillas add extra fiber and work well for lunch meal prep.
