These Crunchy Chicken Salad Wraps are made with a delicious, light chicken salad recipe, and then they’re all wrapped up in low carb flour tortillas!
It seems like I’m always on some sort of quest to lose weight. I’ve tried all the diets. They all work, but they don’t all work long-term. So I’ve resorted to just eating smartly. What I mean by that is that I eat a light breakfast such as my copycat Starbucks egg bites and a light lunch. Most days of the week, I eat a lighter dinner too. I exercise every day. And then there’s plenty of wiggle room for going out to dinner and enjoying more delicious foods when the mood strikes!
These crunchy chicken salad wraps are a recipe I make for lunch pretty often. Sometimes I skip the tortillas and just eat them in a lettuce wrap instead. I love the crunch from the cucumber and celery.
