Perfect for a quick lunch or an easy dinner, this Greek Chicken Wrap Recipe is full of flavor and low in calories!
This summer has started off with a bang. I feel like I’ve been all over the place lately, and I can’t remember the last time I was home to make a full week’s worth of recipes.
But this week will be a lot more chill, so I sat down this past weekend to make a meal plan. And I realized something.
We have officially hit the point of the year when I get stumped when it comes to choosing what to make for dinner.
I will fully admit that I am a comfort food kind of girl. I have no shame – I love a good casserole. Meat, cheese, pasta – load it up, I want it all. But when the temperatures start to climb, comfort foods are not the way to go. Light, fresh, easy – that’s what a good summer meal is made of.
But for some reason, this is when I have a hard time coming up with good summertime recipes to make. So it is my goal this year to beef up my arsenal of great summer recipes – starting with this Greek Chicken Wrap Recipe.
This recipe uses one of my favorite freezer staples – cooked, shredded chicken. I always keep some stocked in my freezer to use for an easy dinner or lunch. It’s easy to cook up a few chicken breasts or a whole chicken when you have some extra time, then shred it up and freeze it for later. Or if your freezer isn’t stocked, pick up a rotisserie chicken in a pinch.
For this chicken wrap recipe, you combine all kinds of great Greek flavors to make an easy lunch or dinner wrap. I’m a sucker for a good wrap recipe, and I love Greek flavors, so I knew this one would be a hit. And bonus – it’s actually low in calories so it’s a healthy lunch or dinner recipe, as well. Winner!
This recipe just may be making an appearance over and over again in our house all summer long. I love that it’s quick, easy, and doesn’t require any cooking. Bring on summer!!
