Chicken and Broccoli Salad Wraps

With warmer weather here, I'm always on the lookout for easy, cool meals.  I found this one in my recipe box a few weeks ago.  I don't know how long I've had it, but it had just kind of gotten lost in there, and I'd never tried it before. 

Thankfully I pulled it out this time, because this makes a great summer dinner.  I used chicken breasts I grilled on my George Foreman grill, but this would also be good with leftover rotisserie chicken.


Chicken And Broccoli Salad Wraps
adapted from an Azteca recipe

Ingredients:
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cups cubed, cooked chicken
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
  • 2 T chopped green onions
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. black pepper
  • 3/4 cup Miracle Whip or salad dressing
  • 6 flour tortillas
  • Cheese
Directions:
  1. Add about 1 inch of water to a saucepan; bring to boiling.  Add broccoli and cook 2 minutes or until crisp-tender.  Drain and rinse with cold water.
  2. In a large bowl combine broccoli and all remaining ingredients except tortillas and cheese; toss lightly. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. 
  3. To serve, spoon filling onto tortillas, top with shredded cheese, and wrap or roll up tortilla to enclose filling. Enjoy!

Makes 6 wraps.

I made some Lemon Spaghetti Salad to go with this, which was really good.  It also makes a good lunch (or dinner) with just some carrot and celery sticks on the side.
