Ingredients
Proteins
- 2 chicken breasts, cooked and sliced
Wrap & Sauce
- 2 tortillas
- 2 tablespoons pesto (preferably homemade)
Vegetables
- 1/2 cup fresh spinach
- 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Spread Pesto: Evenly spread 1 tablespoon of pesto over each tortilla, ensuring the flavor covers the entire surface for a delicious base.
- Layer Ingredients: Place the cooked and sliced chicken breasts evenly over the pesto. Add fresh spinach leaves, halved cherry tomatoes, and top with shredded mozzarella cheese on each tortilla.
- Roll Wraps: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly, making sure all ingredients are securely wrapped inside to prevent fillings from falling out.
- Slice and Serve: Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately for a fresh taste. Optionally, you can toast the wraps in a pan or sandwich press for a warm and melty variation.
Notes
- Use homemade pesto made from fresh basil, pine nuts, Parmesan, garlic, and olive oil for the best flavor.
- Add grilled vegetables such as zucchini or bell peppers for added texture and flavor variety.
- To enjoy a warm wrap, toast the rolled wraps in a skillet or sandwich press until cheese melts and tortillas are golden.
