Tips

  • Get a head start on tomorrow's lunch. Make the chicken salad mix the night before and store in an airtight container. Assemble wraps when ready to eat.
  • Make a vegetarian version by replacing the chicken with black beans.
  • Ask your little chefs to help you mix all ingredients. Older kids can spread the chicken salad mix onto lettuce leaves.
  • There are endless combinations of veggies that would fit perfectly into this wrap. Try shredded carrots, cucumbers or sliced peppers.
