Tide You Over Tuesday: BBQ Chicken Wraps

by Amanda @ A Few Short Cuts on July 26, 2010

I can’t  believe that Back to School season is just around the corner.  Since I homeschool my kids I don’t have to worry about packing lunches, but I still have to feed them :) .  I am constantly getting the same complaints, “We are having Ham sandwiches again!?” “Don’t we have something else for lunch?”

I try to be creative with lunches.  I really do.  It just gets exhausting to think of an assortment of lunches to keep the kids interested in food.  I know the same is true for packing lunches.  It is hard to come up with new and creative things to pack that don’t need to be heated.  That is why I am going to try to post some really great lunchbox choices for you guys over the next few weeks.  Each Tuesday I will post a new lunchbox idea!

This week is one of my favorites! I make them all the time!  We even have them for dinner sometimes!  My kids love these too, and they are easy on the bank!

BBQ Chicken Wrap

BBQ Chicken Wrap Printable Version

  • Cut up Cooked Chicken (I use Lawry’s Chipotle Lime Marinade!)
  • Medium-Large Tortillas ( Use Corn for GF)
  • Shredded Cheddar Cheese (leave out for Dairy Free)
  • Shredded Lettuce
  • BBQ Sauce

Directions

Heat up Tortillas either in oven under broiler or in microwave.  They fold better when they are warm.

Squirt a TBSP of BBQ Sauce in Tortilla.

Stack Chicken, Lettuce, and shredded cheddar cheese in the tortilla.

Fold the Tortilla like a burrito.  Fold in the sides, and then roll.

Serve!

These are really so good!  They are perfect for lunch on the go!  Even for picnics!

Delicious I’m sure, I hear the same things from my kids, and this will be a nice change on menu. Love the pictures you’ve added. Makes it nice because now the kids can even see the steps and help out.

This looks great but I didn’t think BBQ sauce was Gluten Free. I have not been able to find one. Just wondering if i was missing something! Please let me no I would love to make these.

Here is a link to a site that lists all the Gluten Free BBQ Sauce http://www.bbqsaucereviews.com/barbecuesaucereviews/gluten-free-barbecue-sauces/ There are only 2 that contain gluten. I always just read labels.
