Recipe Notes
To make this ahead, prepare all ingredients, but don't assemble the wraps. When you are ready, assemble the wraps and serve.If your tortillas need to be softened before folding, simply heat in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds before adding the filling and folding.There are many different high-fiber low carb tortillas to choose from these days, including Xtreme Wellness, La Tortilla Factory and Mission. The wraps I used were Mission Protein with just 70 calories, 15g carbohydrates and 12g fiber each.Serving size: 1 chicken caesar wrapClick here to see your WW Points for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site.8*PointsPlus (Old plan)
