Helpful tips

• Ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly by checking that the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
• Feel free to adjust the amount of Caesar dressing according to your taste preference.
• If making for meal prep, pack the dressing separately to keep the wraps crisp until you’re ready to eat.

Optional variations

• For a different flavor, consider adding sliced avocado or bacon bits to your wraps.
• You can substitute the chicken with grilled shrimp or tofu for a vegetarian option.
