Ingredients
Scale
For the wraps:
- 4 large flour tortillas (burrito size)
- 2/3 cup creamy blue cheese dressing
For the filling:
- 2 cups romaine lettuce, finely shredded
- 10 oz cooked chicken, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 large beefsteak tomato, diced
- 4 large eggs, hard-boiled and finely chopped
- 8 slices crispy bacon, crumbled
- 6 tbsp blue cheese crumbles
- 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
Instructions
- Prep the Salad Fillings: Gather all filling ingredients and prepare them for assembly. Dice cooked chicken into 1/2-inch cubes, hard-boil and finely chop eggs, crumble crispy bacon into bite-sized pieces, dice the tomato, and finely shred the romaine lettuce using a sharp knife or mandoline for smooth rolling. In a small bowl, mix fresh lemon juice with creamy blue cheese dressing to create a bright, spreadable dressing.
- Build the Cobb Wraps: Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of the lemon-enhanced blue cheese dressing evenly over the tortilla, leaving a 1-inch border. Layer the ingredients in order: shredded lettuce, diced chicken, diced tomato, chopped eggs, crumbled bacon, and blue cheese crumbles. Sprinkle fresh chives on top for a fresh onion note. Repeat with remaining tortillas and fillings.
- Roll and Slice Diagonally: Fold in the left and right edges of the tortilla about 2 inches to form flaps. Then, starting from the bottom edge closest to you, fold up and over the filling tightly. Roll forward with steady pressure to enclose all ingredients fully and maintain a compact wrap. Place seam-side down on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut each wrap in half diagonally with a gentle sawing motion to ensure clean, non-squished presentation.
Notes
- Store salad components separately in airtight containers to prevent sogginess; assembled wraps are best eaten within 30 minutes.
- Keep blue cheese dressing in a sealed jar for up to one week.
- Transport wraps in foil or parchment paper to maintain shape and prevent leakage.
- Swap blue cheese dressing with ranch, buttermilk dressing, Greek yogurt with lemon, buffalo mayo, or gorgonzola with sour cream for flavor variations.
- Do not freeze assembled wraps as lettuce and tomatoes will become mushy upon thawing.
