Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams vegetarian chicken strips
- 2 cups romaine lettuce
- 4 pieces whole wheat wraps
- 0.5 cup Caesar dressing
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup croutons
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the vegetarian chicken strips to the skillet and season with 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder and 0.25 teaspoon of ground black pepper.
Cook the vegetarian chicken strips for 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden brown and heated through. Remove from heat and set aside.
Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Add the cooked vegetarian chicken strips to the bowl of lettuce.
Pour 0.5 cup of Caesar dressing over the lettuce and vegetarian chicken. Toss well to combine and ensure everything is evenly coated.
Sprinkle 0.5 cup of Parmesan cheese and 1 cup of croutons over the salad mixture, gently tossing to incorporate.
Lay a whole wheat wrap on a flat surface. Spoon about 1/4 of the salad mixture onto the center of the wrap.
Fold the sides of the wrap inwards and then roll the wrap up tightly from the bottom to enclose the filling.
Repeat with the remaining wraps and salad mixture.
Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.
