Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works fantastically!)

1/2 cup BBQ sauce (choose your favorite brand)

1 cup shredded lettuce (iceberg or romaine for crunch)

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend)

4 whole wheat tortillas (8-inch size)

1/2 cup corn (canned or frozen, thoroughly thawed)

1/4 cup ranch dressing (optional, for extra creaminess)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the BBQ sauce. Stir until the chicken is thoroughly coated. For a more intense flavor, let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow the chicken to absorb the sauce.

    Prepare the Wraps: Spread the whole wheat tortillas out on a clean, flat surface or a large cutting board. If desired, spoon a dollop of ranch dressing onto each tortilla, spreading it gently with the back of a spoon and leaving an inch of space around the edges for easy wrapping.

      Layer the Ingredients: Evenly spread approximately 1/2 cup of the BBQ chicken mixture across each tortilla. Next, layer on the shredded lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, corn, and shredded cheese, ensuring an even distribution among all four wraps for an optimal bite in every mouthful.

        Wrap it Up: Starting from one edge of the tortilla, carefully roll it up tightly around the fillings. As you continue to roll, tuck in the sides to keep everything secure. Once fully rolled, you may secure the wrap with a toothpick to help hold it together if desired.

          Serve: Using a sharp knife, slice each wrap in half diagonally for easy handling and to make them more appealing. You can serve them immediately or wrap them in foil for an exciting lunchbox treat! For added enjoyment, include extra BBQ sauce on the side for dipping.
