This is an incredibly easy recipe for Chinese Chicken Wraps. Think: Chinese Chicken Salad deconstructed into a wrap. So good.
If I’m out and there’s Chinese Chicken Salad on the menu, 9 times out of 10, I will order it. There’s something about the mix of greens, chicken and crispy wontons that gets me salivating every single time. What better way to eat your salad than in a wrap? No fork, easy to pack. It’s a two-fer.
I’ve recently partnered with Toufayan Bakeries to bring you some deliciousness using their wraps, pitas, and gluten-free product lines. If you follow me on Instagram then you probably saw this photo:
This is just the top layer of goodies. It was packed with wraps and pitas and chips and cookies and more wraps (gluten-free) and more pitas and smart bagels and sea salt caramel pita chips (WHAT?). I have a recipe idea for the pita chips that I think you’re going to LOVE. Be on the lookout soon for that.
My kids have had a hay day going through this box and have demolished several items, including, but not limited to, COOKIES. When I told them I was going to make Chinese Chicken Wraps, they were like “awe mom” [insert whiny voices here] until they saw this:
And then it was all questions about how much longer until they were finished while buzzing around me like little bees. I love it when that happens. The general consensus was that I should make these wraps every day for their school lunch. The husband also agreed that there should be one extra one made for him as well. So I guess you can say that this recipe is a keeper. I hope you give it a try and love it as much as we did. Here’s the recipe. Enjoy!
