Ingredients

• 1 cup cooked, shredded or diced chicken breast
• 1/2 cup reduced-fat shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
• 1 clove garlic, minced (or 1/2 tsp garlic powder)
• 2 tbsp plain nonfat Greek yogurt or light mayo
• 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
• Salt & pepper to taste
• 2 high-fiber or low-carb whole wheat wraps (8-inch)
• Optional: chopped spinach, tomato slices, or thinly sliced red onion

Instructions

1. Prepare the Garlic Sauce
In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt or light mayo with minced garlic and Italian seasoning. Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine.

2. Assemble the Filling
In a separate bowl, combine cooked chicken with the garlic sauce. Mix until the chicken is well coated.

3. Wrap It Up
Lay out each tortilla wrap. Add half of the chicken mixture to each, then sprinkle with shredded cheese. Add optional veggies if using.

4. Cook the Wraps
Fold the wraps like burritos. Lightly spray a non-stick skillet and heat over medium. Place wraps seam-side down and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cheese is melted.

5. Serve
Slice in half and serve warm with a light salad, veggie sticks, or a side of fruit.
