In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 0.5 teaspoon of ground black pepper, and 0.25 teaspoon of salt to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the chicken is coated evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
While the chicken rests, halve the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of lime juice and mash into a smooth mixture.
Slice the cherry tomatoes into halves and the red onion into thin strips.
Lay a whole wheat tortilla on a flat surface. Spread a generous amount of mashed avocado onto the tortilla.
Place a handful of baby spinach over the avocado spread, add a few slices of grilled chicken, and top with sliced cherry tomatoes and red onions.
Roll the tortilla tightly around the fillings. Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas.
Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately.
