These Chicken Avocado Ranch Wraps are a breeze to make, perfect for a light lunch or a quick dinner, and oh-so-satisfying.

Let’s get cooking!
Yields: 4 wraps
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 0 minutes (if using pre-cooked chicken!)
What You’ll Need:
4 large whole wheat or spinach tortillas: These are nice and soft, making them easy to wrap!
- 1.5 cups cooked, shredded chicken: Rotisserie chicken is a lifesaver here, or simply boil and shred a chicken breast.
- 1 ripe avocado: Mashed until smooth.
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing: Feel free to use your favorite!
- 1/4 cup finely chopped celery: For a lovely little crunch.
- 1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper: Adds a touch of sweetness and color.
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or green onions: For a hint of mild oniony flavor.
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Optional additions for extra goodness: A handful of baby spinach or a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
Here’s How to Make Them (It’s Super Simple!): The Creamy Filling: In a medium bowl, gently combine the shredded chicken, mashed avocado, ranch dressing, chopped celery, chopped red bell pepper, and chives (or green onions).
- Season It Up: Season the mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Give it a good stir until everything is nicely blended. Taste it and adjust the seasoning if needed – you’re the chef!
- Assemble Your Wraps: Lay out your tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spoon about a quarter of the chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla. If you’re adding spinach or cheese, layer it on top of the chicken mixture now.
- Wrap It Up! Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll them up snugly from the bottom.
- Enjoy! Cut your wraps in half if you like, and savor every delicious bite!
These wraps are wonderfully versatile. You can enjoy them as is, or serve them with a side of your favorite soup or a simple green salad for a complete and wholesome meal.
