Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 large lettuce leaves
- 1 cup cooked chicken, diced
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup blue cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup bacon, crumbled
- 1 avocado, sliced
- Ranch dressing to taste
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your ingredients. Dice the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces, halve the cherry tomatoes, crumble the blue cheese, and crumble the cooked bacon. Slice the avocado into thin pieces. Ensure that all ingredients are ready to assemble the wraps.
- Take the large lettuce leaves and rinse them under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Pat them dry gently with a paper towel. These leaves will serve as the wrap for your Cobb salad ingredients.
- On a clean cutting board or plate, lay out the lettuce leaves flat. These will be your base for the Cobb salad wraps.
- Evenly distribute the diced chicken among the lettuce leaves, placing it in the center of each leaf.
- Next, add the halved cherry tomatoes on top of the chicken. Scatter them evenly across each lettuce wrap for a burst of color and flavor.
- Sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese over the tomatoes and chicken, ensuring each wrap gets a generous amount for that rich, tangy flavor.
- Add the crumbled bacon on top of the blue cheese, distributing it evenly among the wraps for added crunch and savory goodness.
- Place a few slices of avocado on each wrap. The creamy texture of the avocado will complement the other ingredients beautifully.
- Drizzle Ranch dressing over the top of each wrap to taste. You can adjust the amount based on your preference for creaminess and flavor.
- Carefully fold the sides of the lettuce leaves over the filling and then roll them up from the bottom to create a wrap. You can secure them with a toothpick if needed.
- Serve the Cobb salad lettuce wraps immediately on a platter. Enjoy as a light meal or a refreshing appetizer!
Tips
- Prep Ahead: To save time, you can prepare all your ingredients in advance. Dice the chicken, crumble the bacon, and chop the veggies a day ahead to make assembly a breeze when you’re ready to eat.
- Choose the Right Lettuce: For the best wraps, opt for sturdy lettuce leaves like romaine or butter lettuce. They hold up well and provide a satisfying crunch.
- Customize Your Fillings: Feel free to get creative with your Cobb salad wraps! Add ingredients like diced cucumbers, sliced radishes, or even hard-boiled eggs for extra flavor and nutrition.
- Dress It Up: While Ranch dressing is a classic choice, don’t hesitate to experiment with other dressings like blue cheese, balsamic vinaigrette, or even a zesty lime dressing for a unique twist.
- Serve Fresh: These wraps are best enjoyed immediately after assembly. If you need to prepare them ahead of time, keep the dressing separate until you’re ready to serve to avoid soggy lettuce.
