Fresh corn kernels, tomatoes and lettuce fill these hearty chicken wraps.  Serve with carrot sticks, yummy pepper or other crunchy vegetables plus your favorite creamy dressing.

4 servings | Active Time: 20 minutes | Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup local corn kernels, fresh (see Tip)
  • 3/4 cup chopped fresh tomato (different heirloom tomatoes make it look nice)
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar or cider vinegar
  • Cooked Chicken cut in squares (about 8 ounces)
  • 4 8-inch whole-wheat tortillas
  • 2 cups chopped lettuce
  • Cheese

Preparation

  1. Combine corn, tomato, oil and vinegar in a medium bowl.
  2. Divide chicken among tortillas. Top with equal portions of the corn salad and lettuce. Roll up. Serve the wraps cut in half or quarters, if desired.

Tips & Notes

  • Tip: To remove corn kernels from the cob, stand an ear of corn on one end and slice the kernels off with a sharp knife. One ear will yield about 1/2 cup kernels.
