Ingredients

• 1 piece boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 4 strips turkey bacon
• 4 pieces whole wheat tortillas
• 1 medium avocado
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 cups fresh spinach
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the chicken breast. Cut it into thin strips and season with garlic powder, black pepper, and salt.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken strips and cook for about 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.

Step 3

While the chicken is cooking, place the turkey bacon strips on a medium-hot skillet. Cook until crispy, about 4-5 minutes on each side, then remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

Step 4

Mash the avocado in a small bowl, then mix in the lemon juice. This will prevent the avocado from browning and add a fresh tangy flavor.

Step 5

Wash the fresh spinach and cherry tomatoes. Halve the cherry tomatoes.

Step 6

To assemble the wrap, heat the whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side, just until warm and pliable.

Step 7

Spread a thin layer of the mashed avocado over each tortilla.

Step 8

Place a handful of fresh spinach leaves on top of the avocado, followed by cooked chicken strips and crumbled turkey bacon.

Step 9

Add halved cherry tomatoes evenly on top.

Step 10

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll it tightly from the bottom to encase all ingredients, creating a neat wrap.

Step 11

Cut the wraps in half if desired and serve immediately. Enjoy your heart-healthy chicken and bacon wraps!
