Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)

1/4 cup mayonnaise (optional, for creaminess)

1/2 cup celery, finely chopped

1/2 cup red grapes, halved

1/4 cup red onion, finely diced

1/2 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon honey (optional)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Greek yogurt, and mayonnaise (if using). Mix until well combined.

    Add the chopped celery, halved grapes, diced red onion, and chopped nuts to the bowl, stirring gently to incorporate.

      Drizzle the Dijon mustard, honey (if using), and lemon juice over the mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir until evenly coated.

        Lay out your wraps on a clean work surface. Place a generous scoop of the chicken salad mixture in the center of each wrap.

          Top the chicken salad with a few leafy greens for added crunch.

            Carefully fold in the sides of the wrap, then roll from the bottom up to securely enclose the filling.

              Cut the wraps in half diagonally for easy handling and serve immediately, or store in the refrigerator for later.
