Chicken tortilla
Tortilla is a type of flat cake made from wheat flour or cornmeal. Though most often it can be found in Mexican dishes such as quesadillas or tacos, it has also settled in other cuisines for good and is used in many households. If you want some cold snacks, you can also prepare wraps from it, which everyone loves. You can use many ingredients as a filling for tortillas. The most popular filling is chicken, but you can also use vegetables or even combine the two. Often, cheese and a sauce is also a part of tortilla wraps.

Good to know when making chicken tortilla wraps.
I used tortillas prepared from wheat flour. Corn tortillas work well in this recipe as well.
You can replace the green pepper with yellow or red pepper.
The avocados must be drizzled with lemon juice or soaked in water with it, or else they will darken very quickly right after slicing.
