# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • Everything you love about a Caesar salad but actually portable and not falling all over your lap
  • The homemade dressing comes together in two minutes and makes you feel like you actually know what you are doing in the kitchen
  • Perfect for those days when you want something satisfying but still relatively light and fresh
02 -
  • The dressing needs at least 15 minutes in the fridge to let the flavors meld together properly
  • Warm your tortillas for 10 seconds in the microwave before assembling or they will crack and make you sad
  • Do not skip the resting step for the chicken or all those juices will end up on your cutting board instead of in your wrap

  • Double the dressing recipe and keep it in a jar in your fridge for instant salads all week
  • If your tortillas are stiff steam them briefly over a pot of boiling water for restaurant style pliability
