- 1 ripe avocado, sliced or mashed
- Lettuce (such as romaine or iceberg), torn into pieces
- Optional: diced onions and shredded cheese
- Optional: ranch dressing, jalapeños, and chopped tomatoes for added flavor
Instructions
- Warm Tortillas: Heat the tortillas in a skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 15-20 seconds until warm and pliable.
- Prepare Fillings: While warming the tortillas, shred the grilled chicken breasts and slice or mash the ripe avocado. Prepare any optional fillings such as diced onions, shredded cheese, jalapeños, and chopped tomatoes.
- Assemble Wrap: Lay the warm tortilla flat and layer evenly with avocado, shredded chicken, lettuce, and any additional vegetables or cheese. Add ranch dressing or other sauces if using.
