When we have chicken for dinner, I cook extra for these full-flavored roll-ups. Featuring Caesar salad dressing, cream cheese, red pepper, black olives and a hint of garlic, the wraps are perfect alongside corn on the cob and a green vegetable. —Christi Martin, Elko, Nevada

1/2 cup creamy Caesar salad dressing
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the salad dressing, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, garlic and pepper. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add half of the salad dressing mixture and mix well; set aside.

These are very refreshing and flavorful. I used naan bread instead of the tortillas last time I made them, and we enjoyed it that way as well.

Great for packing in lunches. My son loved these, even though he typically does not like wraps.

I left out the olives because I live in a household of picky eaters, but it was delicious. I am keeping this recipe around :)

Fabulous! These wraps are great with a high-quality tomato soup. I used low-fat dressing and cream cheese. Also chicken that has some herbs, such as left-over roast chicken, is great. This has been a big hit every time I've made it.
