Ingredients
Scale
Protein
- 1 lb chicken breast, grilled or roasted
- 4 slices smoked turkey bacon
Dressing
- 1/2 cup plant-based Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 tablespoon grape juice (natural)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Pinch of black pepper
Vegetables and Cheese
- 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1/2 cup plant-based cheese, shredded or sliced
Wrap
- 4 whole wheat tortillas
Seasonings
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Grill or pan-sear them until cooked through and juicy. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes, then slice into thin strips.
- Cook the Smoked Turkey Bacon: In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the smoked turkey bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels and cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Make the Caesar Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together plant-based Greek yogurt, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, grape juice, garlic powder, and black pepper until creamy and well combined.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay whole wheat tortillas flat and spread a generous amount of the dressing on each. Layer chopped romaine lettuce, sliced chicken, turkey bacon pieces, and plant-based cheese on top. Roll the tortillas tightly to secure all ingredients inside.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice the wraps diagonally in half for a neat presentation. Optionally, secure with toothpicks for easy handling. Serve immediately while fresh and crisp.
Notes
- Briefly warm tortillas to make them more pliable and prevent tearing.
- Use dressing moderately to avoid soggy wraps.
- Choose crisp romaine lettuce for ideal crunch and structure.
- Slice chicken thinly for better flavor distribution and ease of eating.
- Cook chicken and bacon ahead of time to speed up assembly.
