Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced

1 cup cucumber, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

½ cup red onion, finely chopped

½ cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced

¾ cup feta cheese, crumbled

¼ cup plain Greek yogurt

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

4 large whole wheat wraps or pita bread

Fresh spinach or mixed greens (optional for added texture)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken Salad Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded or diced chicken breast with the diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, sliced Kalamata olives, and crumbled feta cheese. Mix gently to combine all ingredients evenly.

    Make the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the plain Greek yogurt, olive oil, red wine vinegar, fresh lemon juice, dried oregano, and a sprinkle of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Whisk until the dressing is smooth and well-blended.

      Combine Salad and Dressing: Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture. Using a spatula or spoon, gently toss the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated with the dressing.

        Warm the Wraps: Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Add the whole wheat wraps or pita bread, warming them for about 30 seconds on each side until they are soft and pliable.

          Assemble the Wraps: Lay a generous scoop of the chicken salad mixture in the center of each wrap. If using, add a handful of fresh spinach or mixed greens for an extra crunch and nutritional boost.

            Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the wrap inward, then roll it up tightly from the bottom edge to secure the filling inside.

              Serve: Slice the wraps diagonally in half to showcase the colorful filling and serve immediately. Alternatively, wrap them in foil for convenient on-the-go meals.

                  - Presentation Tips: Arrange the wraps on a serving platter, and add a small bowl of extra feta or Kalamata olives on the side for a delightful touch. Garnish with lemon wedges for a pop of color and freshness!
