Storage Notes

Best Fresh:

Wraps = best eaten immediately. Lettuce gets sad after a few hours.

Meal Prep Style:

Store BBQ chicken separately for 4 days. Assemble wraps fresh when hungry.

Pro Tip:

Toast the tortilla in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side first. Holds up better. Tastes better. Worth it.
