Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- 0.333 cup mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Greek yogurt (plain)
- 0.333 cup celery, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons red onion, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup dried cranberries

- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.
Add the shredded or diced chicken, celery, red onion, dried cranberries, walnuts, and parsley to the bowl. Mix until the ingredients are evenly coated in the dressing.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice if desired.
Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Place a small handful of mixed greens or spinach in the center of the tortilla.
Spoon about 1/4 of the chicken salad mixture on top of the greens.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom up to form a wrap.
Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and chicken salad mixture.
Slice each wrap in half, if desired, and serve immediately or wrap in parchment paper or foil for a portable meal option.
