It’s no secret that “wrap” recipes are one of my favorite things to share with you guys. They make the best easy meals and the most picky eaters can’t resist them. I’ve shared nearly 15 different kinds of wraps (find them here) and this Chicken Bacon Avocado Wrap is definitely one of my favorites.
I first shared this recipe several years ago–it was one of the first I ever posted on this blog! Even though it’s still beloved by my family, it was so far back in my blog archives it was almost lost forever!
I’ve updated the recipe and photos and hopefully it gets some new love and attention because it definitely deserves it!
I like to use a rotisserie chicken in this recipe, mostly because I’m lazy and I love the flavor it adds. You could also cook a chicken breast and shred it. Boiling the chicken breast in a pot of water, seasoned with salt and pepper, is my favorite way to cook it so that is shreds really easily.
I often get asked what kind of tortillas I use. This brand is by far my favorite.
I like to serve these with a side of fresh fruit, cold chopped veggies, and good ol’ fashioned potato chips.
Consider trying these “wraps”:
- Crispy BBQ Chicken Wrap
- Honey BBQ Chicken Wrap
- Crispy Southwest Wrap
- Chicken Cashew Crunch Wrap
- Chicken Caesar Wrap

Chicken Bacon Avocado Wrap is one of my favorite easy dinner ideas! Lettuce, chicken, bacon and avocados tossed in a yummy dressing and layered inside a tortilla.
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
- 4-5 large tortillas
- 2 cups romaine lettuce , shredded
- 1 avocado diced
- 5-6 slices bacon cooked and chopped
- 1 large chicken breast cooked and shredded
In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, dried basil, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
In a large bowl, toss together shredded lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, bacon and chicken.
Add mayonnaise mixture to the large bowl and toss to coat evenly. You may not need all the dressing--add it to your liking.
- Top tortillas with a large spoonful of the filling. Roll-up each wrap and secure with a toothpick if necessary. Enjoy!

Umm.. my mouth is seriously watering! I wish we lived closer so we could have dinner swaps 😉 haha! Love you!
Lauren Allen says
I know me too! Dinner swaps would be fun 🙂
Kathleen says
Oh wow! That sounds and looks fantastic. It’s probably better for you than a sandwich because of no bread. That tortilla has to have less bad stuff in it than bread. I think I will have to make this! Kathleen @ Fearlessly Creative Mammas
Lauren Allen says
Definitely! And you could always substitute Greek yogurt for the mayonnaise to make it even healthier!
Sue Caldwell says
Pinning to do the next time I have rotisserie chicken! . . . I believe you can substitute mashed avocado for the mayo to make it healthier!
Lauren Allen says
I love making this with rotisserie chicken! It cuts the prep in half! And I’m totally going to try mashed avocado next time–great idea!
Deborah Ethridge says

Janet Hook says
This sounds awesome!!!! I am totally going to try this this summer when its too hot in Arizona to cook anything!!! Also if your tryiing to go for healthier options you can use plain greek yogurt instead of mayo 🙂
Lauren Allen says
Thanks Janet! Let me know how you like it with the greek yogurt–I bet it will taste just as great!

These and your Buffalo Chicken wraps are going to my friend going through Chemo tonight! Its throwing off her taste buds and I think the spicy Buffalo chicken wraps and these savory Chicken Bacon Avocado wraps may help her out.
Thanks for the great recipes!
Lauren Allen says
Hahaha thanks Kim! I hope she loves the two different flavor combinations!
arw says
Sour cream instead of mayo yum!
Lauren Allen says
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Stacy Myers says
These were utterly amazing. And of course they would be – because like my husband said, “anything with bacon AND avocado in it is gonna be awesome.” I paired them with cucumbers and fresh peaches on the side. Dinner was a big hit. Thanks! 🙂
Allison says
What brand of tortilla did you use?
Lauren Allen says
I use”Tortilla Land” uncooked tortillas (Costco carries them)
Shana says
omg! So awesome. I added onion and used light mayo. I also added jalapeño with 3 cheese seasoned chicken breast.
Megan says
looks so good! did you use homemade tortillas or what brand are they??
Lauren Allen says
Hi Megan, I use the Tortilla Land brand of uncooked tortillas (you should be able to find that am your local grocery store). They’re amazing!
Jan says
This looks great! How many days do think it will last in the fridge before losing its taste/texture? Thanks.
Lauren Allen says
Hi Jan, Because of the lettuce and dressing it really wont keep more than 1-2 days in the fridge without getting mushy. You could always prep all of the ingredients in advance (without coating the lettuce in sauce, and then throw it together right before you’re ready to eat…Hope that helps.
Stacy says
Can I eat these every day?! Seriously, the best!
Elaine says
This has now become my go to spaghetti sauce recipe. Delicious and easy!
Elaine says
Oops! The spaghetti sauce is delicious and these wraps are too!
Dennis says
Loved it! I did add a little mustard and honey to the dressing to give it a little kick, it is a new classic in our family!
Sherry says
You know this is a keeper when your picky toddlers are asking for seconds. A fun twist to lunch and love how quick and easy these are to make.
