Chicken Avocado Wraps check every box!
It’s a healthier dinner (or lunch) that my family loves, it’s quick, and uses ingredients I always have on hand. I love that I can grab a rotisserie chicken from the store and have dinner on the table in 15 minutes. Plus, wraps are just fun to eat and don’t make you feel weighed down.
I strongly recommend pairing these with homemade flour tortillas. The tiny bit of extra effort makes all th difference for truly the BEST chicken wrap ever. You can make a batch of tortillas and freeze them for the future, too.
Try my other wraps and sandwiches, like Chicken Caesar Wraps, Gyros, Southwest Wrap, BBQ Chicken Wrap, Veggie Wrap, Turkey Club Wrap, or Buffalo Chicken Wrap!

Wrap in Tortilla: Scoop some in the center of a homemade tortilla then wrap up your chicken avocado wrap and enjoy!
