This Southwest Chicken Wrap is a tasty lunch made with Tyson® Grilled & Ready® Fully Cooked Oven Roasted Diced Chicken Breast, lettuce, tomato, beans, corn, cheese and a Skinny Chipotle Mayo wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla.
After those high calorie holiday meals and extra sugary treats, I force myself make smarter food choices to start off the new year, as many people do. Lunchtime is my “make it or break it” part to my day. It is so easy to grab a soda and fast food mid-day, so it takes extra effort to plan out my lunches and stick to it. Having something tasty, wholesome, convenient, filling and better for me is the goal and this Southwest Chicken Wrap hits all the notes. Plus, I am hitting the gym more frequently so a high protein diet is a must!
Tyson Grilled & Ready Fully Cooked Chicken
A delicious Southwest Chicken Wrap starts with quality chicken. Tyson Grilled & Ready chicken products can help simplify meal time by saving time and supplying protein. I find it in the freezer section at my local Walmart! Tyson Grilled & Ready Fully Cooked Oven Roasted Diced Chicken Breast has 19g of protein per serving of its 100% all-natural, made with white meat chicken. No antibiotics are ever used!
Also try the Tyson Grilled & Ready Fully Cooked Grilled Fajita Chicken Strips for some extra flavor and 17g of protein per serving!
Southwest Chicken Wrap
This Southwest Chicken Wrap is a breeze to make thanks to Tyson Grilled and Ready products. You can quickly heat the chicken up in the microwave or cook on the stove-top for 3-5 minutes. I like to add just a drizzle of olive oil to a hot pan, add the chicken with a pinch of salt and pepper and toss the chicken until re-heated. SO easy, SO fast and SO convenient for various meals- not just these yummy Southwest Chicken Wraps. The meal possibilities are endless!
Skinny Chipotle Mayo
A good sandwich or wrap has a great sauce. A lot of sauces add a lot of fat/calories that I am trying to stay away from so this Skinny Chipotle Mayo is added to cut back a bit but still supply a lot of flavor.
What you need:
- Light mayonnaise
- Greek yogurt
- Lime juice
- Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce- can be easily found at your local grocery store
- Fresh cilantro
Place ingredients into a food processor and blend until creamy. Store in a sealable container in the fridge for one week. Use on sandwiches, wraps, salads, as a dip and more!
I am getting hungry with all this Southwest Chicken Wrap and Skinny Chipotle Mayo talk. Time to get cooking because lunchtime is here.
