Ingredients
Bruschetta
- 1 tomato diced (seeds removed)
- 1 tablespoon minced onion
- 1-2 tablespoons fresh minced basil or 1 teaspoon dry basil
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- kosher salt
- black pepper
Pesto Mayo Spread
- 1 tablespoon light mayo
- 1 tablespoon light sour cream or plain greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons pesto
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice and a little zest
Wraps
- 1 cup shredded or diced cooked chicken breast about 4 ounces
- 1 tablespoon pine nuts toasted
- ½ cup shredded romaine lettuce or spinach leaves
- 2 tortillas flat breads, rolls, pitas, etc.
Instructions
Bruschetta
- Combine diced tomato, onion, basil, and balsamic vinegar. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
Pesto Mayo Spread and Wrap Assembly
- Combine mayo, sour cream, pesto, lemon juice and a few grates of the lemon zest. Stir mixture and combine it with chicken and pine nuts, stirring until combined. Layer lettuce on torillas (or carb of choice), top with chicken mixture, and then bruschetta.
Notes
- Feel free to make the bruschetta a day or two ahead of time. You can also prep the pesto mayo ahead and even combine it with the chicken so assembly goes quickly!
