My first time making Wraps.

So this was something new for me...  I've had wraps from different places... but never made them at home.  One thing I didn't expect was that I would have so much trouble actually doing the "wrapping"! lol  I used tortilla shells... so I don't know if regular Mission brand deli wraps would have been less "cracky".  I steamed the shells my second time around & they were easier to work with.

Here's the low down...

I started out by creating a dressing to use in my Chicken wrap. I regret to say that I didn't keep track of the exact measurements of the ingredients... but if you make it you can adjust to your taste.

Sweet Balsamic Vinegar Dressing
2 Tbsp. Olive Oil
1 Tbsp. Balsamic Vinegar
1 Tbsp. Brown Sugar
1/2 Tsp. Sesame Seeds
Mix all ingredients together.  Adjust to your liking.


Next I gathered the stuff I wanted to put inside my wraps.
Pictured are:  Black Beans, Grilled Corn, Steak, Rotisserie Chicken, Onion, Lettuce, Tomato & Avacado
  • I wanted to grill the steak, but the hubby wasn't in the mood to fire up the grill... so I pan fried it.
  • I grilled the corn kernels in a saute skillet with a little bit of butter.  I used canned corn because I didn't have any fresh... I think fresh, or at least frozen, would have came out a bit nicer... but it was still good.
  • The black beans came from a can & were rinsed well.
  • Also in the picture is some Honey Dijon salad dressing that my hubby used in his wrap.



And here's my end product.  This is a Chicken wrap... hubby had Steak wraps.  I didn't add any tomato in this one.  They were actually really good!  I will make them again... perhaps with Bacon & Ranch next time!
