Avocado Buffalo Chicken Wraps #WeekdaySupper

 Avocado Buffalo Chicken Wraps are a spicy buffalo chicken salad packed with lots of vegetables and made with avocado and Greek yogurt instead of mayo.  Enjoyed warm or chilled, this wrap is healthy, quick and easy ~ perfect for a weeknight!

Avocado Buffalo Chicken Wraps put a fun and unique twist on your everyday chicken salad.  Shredded chicken, drenched in a light, seasoned buffalo sauce, spices things up, while an avocado and Greek yogurt mixture replaces the mayo.  For the vegetables, I used shredded carrots and chopped broccoli (I’m not a fan of celery, but if you are, some chopped celery would be a tasty addition as well).   A little blue cheese crumble would be an excellent topping as well.  

For this recipe, I used poached chicken.  You can easily use shredded rotisserie  chicken and skip to step 2.  While I made the Avocado Buffalo Chicken Salad into a wrap, it is excellent as a sandwich, stuffed in a pita, or whatever your favorite preparation.

Yields: 4 servings

Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
• ½ cup hot sauce (I use Frank's)
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, divided
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon onion powder
• ½ cup shredded carrots
• 1 cup chopped cooked broccoli florets
• 1 avocado
• ¼ cup nonfat Greek yogurt
• 4 tortillas

Instructions

1. Place chicken in a large sauce pan and cover with water. Bring to a boil; then cover and simmer until no longer pink in the middle (about 10 to 15 minutes). Transfer to a bowl
2. Meanwhile, combine hot sauce, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Pour over warm chicken and then shred using two forks.
3. Combine carrots and broccoli.
4. In a small bowl, mash avocado and then combine with yogurt and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
5. Top each tortilla with ¼ avocado mixture, ¼ carrot broccoli mixture and ¼ buffalo chicken. Roll up, slice in half and serve!

Notes

I like to layer my wraps, but if desired, you can combine the buffalo chicken, avocado mixture and carrots/broccoli into a 'chicken salad' and then fill tortillas, pitas, bread or whatever you're using.
