- 1/4 cup sliced red onion
- 1/2 cup diced cucumber
Optional Add-ins

Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: If not already cooked, poach, grill, or bake chicken breasts until fully cooked and tender. Once cooled, shred or dice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- Toss with Ranch Dressing: In a medium bowl, combine the cooked chicken with the ranch dressing, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated to infuse the chicken with creamy flavor.
- Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and chop the lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and slice the red onion for crisp, fresh texture in the wraps.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay each tortilla flat and evenly distribute a quarter of the ranch chicken mixture in the center. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, cucumber, red onion, and cheddar cheese. Add any optional ingredients like bacon bits or avocado if desired.
- Roll the Wraps: Fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll from one end to the other to secure the ingredients inside.
- Serve: Cut each wrap in half if preferred and serve immediately. These wraps are best enjoyed fresh for their crisp texture and vibrant flavors.
