Ingredients
  

2 large whole wheat tortillas

1 ripe mango, peeled and sliced

1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded (or use shredded tofu for a vegetarian option)

1/2 cup red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

1 avocado, sliced

1/4 cup Greek yogurt

2 tablespoons mayonnaise

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: sliced jalapeños for extra heat

Instructions
 

Prepare the Spicy Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix well until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

    Layer the Ingredients: On each tortilla, spread a generous amount of the spicy sauce evenly all the way to the edges to ensure every bite is flavorful.

      Add protein and veggies: Start layering with shredded chicken or tofu, followed by the sliced mango, red bell pepper, cilantro, and avocado slices.

        Wrap It Up: Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it tightly from the bottom up to ensure all the fillings are encased within the wrap.

          Toast (Optional): For added flavor and texture, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and toast for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and heated through.

            Slice & Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, let them rest for a minute, then slice in half diagonally. Serve with additional spicy sauce or fresh lime wedges on the side if desired.
