❤️ Why make this recipe
This vegan chicken wrap is a favorite in my house! My family loves vegan Ceasar salads topped with some diced vegan chicken and croutons, but when I want to turn it into a heartier meal, I make these vegan chicken wraps.
It works great for quick dinners or even packed school lunches!
🧾 Ingredients and substitutions
- Tortillas - or any large wrap. You can also use pita bread or gluten-free wraps.
- Vegan Chicken - To make it super easy, you can use vegan chicken patties like Boca brand or even Aldi has vegan chicken patties that you can fry up in minutes. You can also make my homemade vegan chicken strips, vegan shredded chicken, or vegan chicken patties, or see all of my ideas for vegan chicken substitutes.
- Romain Lettuce - or any other crisp lettuce.
- Veggies - (optional) I like to toss in a few sliced cherry tomatoes and sliced cucumber, but you can also add other veggies like sliced carrots or avocados.
- Vegan Caesar Dressing - I like my classic vegan Caesar dressing or my oil-free tahini Caesar dressing. You can also use vegan ranch instead or even vegan buffalo sauce and make it a vegan buffalo chicken wrap instead.

❓ How can I make this gluten-free?
To make this vegan chicken wrap gluten-free, you will need to be sure to use a gluten-free vegan chicken like Gardein Chicken Scallopini or rehydrated Buttler Soy Curls. Of course, you will also need to use a gluten-free wrap as well.

- The amount of water needed will depend on the type of soy milk that you use.
- The protein in the soy milk gives the dressing a creamy texture. If you choose to use a different type of non-dairy milk, it will not be as thick, so you can omit the water.
- Make sure to use plain soy milk and not vanilla!
- If you don't want a slightly fishy flavor, omit the kelp flakes.

INCREDIBLE! LOVE THE DRESSING, Hubby is now using it on his salads and says its the best ever! Used Gardein chickn strips first time, but am going to make your chicken patties and use that next time.
Because I am a CKD patient, this wrap is perfect in carbs, protein and fats--and its so yummy!
