Method

  1. Warm the tortilla in the microwave for 10 secs; this will soften it and makes it easier to roll. Place the chicken and beans along the middle. Season, then spoon over the salsa and scatter with peppers or Tabasco. Lay the tomatoes and leaves on top. Bring the bottom of the tortilla up over the filling. Fold the sides in, then roll into a tight wrap. Pack up tightly to keep it together.

Spicy houmous wrap

For another great wrap idea, try houmous, shredded carrot and chopped red pepper with lettuce and a dollop of harissa.

    This looks awfully dry and unappealing - to be honest I can see why not many people have rated and commented on it.

    Don't knock it until you've tried it :-). Thought it was really nice - used a bit more salsa and added some shredded cheddar on top. Great way of using up cooked chicken. Microwaving the tortilla just made it dry for me though...
