Don\u2019t overdo the dressing\u2014just enough to coat. Use crushed croutons for crunch without poking holes in the wrap. For a chilled version, prep everything ahead and assemble right before eating. Want it warm? Use a panini press or skillet to toast the outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Swap the chicken for crispy chicken tenders or shredded turkey. Add diced tomatoes, avocado, or bacon bits for extra layers of flavor. Use spinach wraps or whole wheat tortillas for variety. Mix in kale or arugula for a more robust green base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make-Ahead and Storage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Prep the Caesar filling ahead and store it in the fridge for up to 2 days. Assemble wraps fresh for the best texture. If making wraps in advance, wrap tightly in foil or parchment and store for up to 24 hours\u2014avoid adding croutons if prepping ahead to prevent sogginess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Chicken Caesar wraps are the answer to those \u201cI want something quick but satisfying\u201d days.
