In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the chicken is well coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Let the grilled chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
In a large bowl, mix the chopped romaine lettuce with the dairy-free Caesar dressing until well coated.
Lay each whole wheat wrap on a flat surface. Start by spreading a layer of dressed lettuce leaves, followed by sliced grilled chicken, cherry tomatoes, avocado slices, and a sprinkle of dairy-free Parmesan cheese.
Fold the sides of the wrap in and then roll it up tightly from the bottom.
Slice the wraps in half diagonally, if desired, and serve immediately.
