Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken tenders*
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp kosher salt, (divided)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ cup pesto ((recipe below or use storebought))
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 4 cups thinly sliced loosely packed kale**
  • 4 cups thinly sliced romaine**
  • 2 medium avocados, (chopped***)
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 4-8 slices bacon, (cooked (optional))
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 4 cups loosely packed basil, (parsley, cilantro, dill, and/or arugula (I like to use a mix of two))
  • ½ cup toasted almonds
  • ½ cup (about 2 oz) grated parmesan
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • **You can use any combination of salad greens here. I like to use half romaine and half of another green (like kale or arugula).
  • ***If you won't eat this in one sitting/are prepping it ahead, don't add the avocados to the salad. Instead, you can just add them to your wrap when you assemble it.
