Tessa’s Recipe Rundown
Taste: Slightly tangy, sweet, nutty, fresh.
Texture: Creamy, crunchy, tender, juicy, crisp.
Ease: Comes together in less than 10 minutes (just use leftover roast chicken or grilled chicken).
Appearance: Oh-so-creamy.
Pros: Light, simple, easy, energizing.
Cons: Salad doesn’t keep well in the fridge.
Would I make this again? I’ve made this a few times for lunch in the past months.

Recipe Notes

Hey Tessa,
Can you tell me how to make a wrap dough? But not like a tortilla wrap, baker and crusty but this very soft almost raw sort of wrapleaves.
Would love to hear from you,
By the way, I’m practicing with the cookies, so much fun

I love fruit & nuts in chicken salad, (never did like celery), so I know I would enjoy this wrap. Ellie Krieger's recipes are great!
