- Black pepper to taste
- 4 large tortillas (flour or whole wheat)

Instructions
- Prepare the chicken: If you don’t have pre-cooked chicken, roast or boil your chicken breasts until cooked through, about 20 minutes. Let it rest before shredding.
- Make the avocado spread: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados with lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix in cilantro.
- Prepare the tortillas: Heat your tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side or until warm.
- Assemble your wrap: Spread a generous spoonful of the avocado mixture on each tortilla. Top with shredded chicken, lettuce, and diced tomatoes.
- Wrap it up: Fold in the sides of the tortillas and roll tightly from the bottom up.
- Serve and enjoy: Serve your Creamy Avocado Chicken Wraps immediately, optionally pairing with your favorite dressing or salsa.
Notes
Make chicken in bulk ahead of time. n Don’t be shy with seasoning! n You can also add cheese for a rich addition. n For meal prep, keep your wraps unsauced until you’re ready to eat. n Experiment with different wraps for added color and flavor. n Use leftover rotisserie chicken for a smoky flavor.
