Paula Deen's Lean: Chicken BLT Wraps

This recipe is inspired by the Super Bowl Sunday article in the January/February 2010 issue of Cooking with Paula Deen. She had a ton of great looking appetizers to choose from, so there was no way to narrow it down to just one. Therefore, this is the first of three recipes to come from her Super-Appetizer-Spread!

 
CHICKEN BLT WRAPS
Makes 8 Servings


INGREDIENTS:
1-1/2 teaspoons Nature's Promise Organic Honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon Hellmann's Mayonnaise Dressing (or Fat Free Mayo)
4 flat bread wraps (Flatout Flatbread in Light Original)
1/2 pound sliced deli chicken
6 slices 40% Reduced-Fat Bacon (center cut)
6 leaves green lettuce
1 large tomato, sliced



DIRECTIONS:
In a small bowl, combine honey, mustard and mayonnaise. Spread evenly on tortillas. Top each with chicken, 1 slice bacon, 1 lettuce leaf and 1 slace tomato.

Fold 1 edge of sandwich wrap over filling; roll up tightly and place seam side down. Cut in half and secure with wooden picks, if needed.


Note: These wraps can be made the morning of the party and stored, covered, in refrigerator.


RESULTS:
This recipe is meant to be an appetizer, but by cutting the tortillas in half (as shown in the pictures), they make a great little lunch sandwich. As you can see, mine are missing the lettuce. That can be blamed on the fact that when our town is calling for a snow storm, people buy up EVERYTHING! It was crazy to see empty shelves throughout the store. At least I know that no one is going to starve through this big snow storm!


The wraps are delish! What makes them is the honey mustard sauce. It adds that little bit of flavor to this traditional BLT sandwich. ENJOY!

  1. These BLT wraps are a perfect Super Bowl Sunday appetizer. As always, you did a nice job reducing the fat and the calories.
    I can only imagine the recipes that Paula Deen has recommended for a Super Bowl spread. Can you imagine being at her house tomororw? :-)
