A quick and creamy chicken salad wrap made with Greek yogurt instead of mayo, featuring crunchy celery and sweet grapes for a fresh, high-protein lunch option.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or chopped (leftover rotisserie chicken works great)
  • 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt, full-fat or 2%
  • 1 stalk celery, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup red grapes, halved
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill or parsley, chopped (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 whole wheat tortillas or wraps

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: If not pre-cooked, poach or roast chicken breasts. For poaching, simmer chicken breasts in water or broth for 15–20 minutes until cooked through. Let cool, then shred or chop into bite-size pieces.
  2. Chop the fresh ingredients: Finely dice celery, halve grapes, thinly slice green onions, and chop fresh dill or parsley.
  3. Combine the dressing: In a medium bowl, mix Greek yogurt with Dijon mustard. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Mix the salad: Add shredded chicken, celery, grapes, green onions, and herbs to the yogurt mixture. Stir gently until evenly coated.
  5. Warm the tortillas: Briefly warm whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 20 seconds per side or microwave for 10 seconds.
  6. Assemble the wraps: Spoon about 1/2 cup of chicken salad onto the center of each tortilla. Fold in edges and roll tightly to enclose the filling.
  7. Serve immediately or refrigerate wrapped for up to 24 hours.

Notes

Use thick Greek yogurt for best texture; if too thick, loosen with a teaspoon of lemon juice or water. Halve or quarter grapes to avoid sogginess. Warm tortillas briefly to prevent cracking when folding. Season well with salt and pepper to enhance flavor. Store salad and wraps separately to avoid sogginess. Wraps are best eaten fresh or within 24 hours refrigerated.
