Main Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Gluten-free tortillas Regular tortillas can be used if gluten is not a concern.
  • 1 pound Shrimp (peeled and deveined) Can substitute with cooked chicken or tofu.
  • 1/2 cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade) Homemade versions can be made with mayonnaise, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and Parmesan cheese.
  • 1 head Romaine lettuce Use fresh, crisp lettuce for optimal texture.
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (shredded) Can replace with nutritional yeast for a vegan version.
  • 1 cup Cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • 1 medium Cucumber (sliced)
  • to taste Black pepper

Instructions
 

Cooking the Shrimp

  • In a skillet over medium heat, drizzle a bit of oil and place the shrimp in. Cook them for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they turn pink and opaque.
  • Pro Tip: Don’t overcrowd the skillet; cook shrimp in batches if necessary to ensure even cooking and browning.

Dressing the Shrimp

  • Once the shrimp are cooked, remove them from the heat and transfer them to a large bowl. Pour in the Caesar dressing and gently toss until they’ve evenly coated.
  • Pro Tip: You can reserve a little dressing to drizzle over the finished wraps for an extra burst of flavor.

Preparing the Tortilla

  • Lay out your gluten-free tortillas on a clean surface and start with a base layer of romaine lettuce to keep the tortilla from getting soggy.
  • Pro Tip: Try to use fresh, crisp lettuce for a satisfying crunch.

Layering the Fillings

  • Add the dressed shrimp on top of the lettuce, followed by cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
  • Pro Tip: Don’t overload your wraps—less is often more when it comes to layering.

Seasoning and Rolling

  • Sprinkle with black pepper to taste, roll the tortilla tightly around the fillings, and slice in half for easy handling.
  • Pro Tip: Folding the sides of the tortilla inward while rolling helps keep everything inside!

Serving

  • Enjoy the wraps solo for a light lunch or pair with a side for a more filling meal.
  • Pro Tip: Serve with a side of crispy chips or fresh fruit for a refreshing contrast.

Notes

Wraps can be customized with different toppings and served fresh for best results. Leftovers should be stored in airtight containers for up to 2 days.
