  • Super quick—just mix, wrap, and eat
  • Creamy, cheesy, and loaded with flavor
  • Perfect for meal prep or on-the-go meals
  • Customizable with your favorite add-ins
  • Naturally satisfying and full of textures

Ingredients

For the Burritos

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie works like a charm)
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup Ranch dressing
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas

Optional Add-Ins

  • Sliced jalapeños for heat
  • Chopped red onion for crunch
  • Lime juice for brightness
  • A handful of baby spinach or shredded lettuce for greens

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Filling

In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced avocado, cheddar cheese, Ranch dressing, chopped cilantro, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Gently stir until everything is evenly coated and creamy—but try not to mash the avocado too much. You want those chunky bites!

Step 2: Warm the Tortillas

Heat your flour tortillas in the microwave for about 15 seconds or in a dry skillet for 20–30 seconds until soft and pliable. This makes wrapping way easier.

Step 3: Fill and Wrap

Spoon the chicken-avocado mixture into the center of each tortilla. Fold in the sides, then roll it up like a burrito. Nice and tight!

Step 4: Toast or Serve

You can eat them as-is, or take it up a notch by grilling each burrito in a skillet for 1–2 minutes per side until golden and crisp. Totally optional—but seriously delicious.

Tips for Wrap Success

  • Use ripe avocados for maximum creaminess
  • Don’t overfill—it’ll make wrapping tricky
  • Make it spicy with chipotle Ranch or hot sauce
  • Wrap in foil for an easy grab-and-go meal

FAQs

Can I make these ahead of time?
Definitely! Assemble and refrigerate for up to 2 days. If you’re adding avocado, a little lime juice can help keep it from browning.

Can I freeze them?
Yep! Leave out the avocado if freezing. Wrap tightly in foil, freeze, and reheat in a skillet or oven for best texture.

Can I use a different protein?
For sure. Swap chicken with turkey, pulled pork, or even black beans for a vegetarian version.
