I was chosen to participate in the first Mommy Blogger Dinner Challenge using Swanson Premium Chicken! Exciting!
This challenge was to spend $10 for ingredients along with 1 can of 12.5 oz. Swanson Chicken that was provided to us and create our own healthy meal for our families. Yes, I had to make my own recipe, not easy for me, lol. Let me tell you, using this can of chicken sure made it easier to put this recipe together. It's cooked, diced and ready to go! Here are a few more great reasons why Swanson's new, larger sized canned chicken is perfect families:
Better Value- You can now get a 12.5 ounce portion of your favorite all white premium chunk chicken (28% more) for about the same price as the 10oz can. This is equivalent to 1.5 cups of cooked chicken.
Convenience- Swanson offers consumers the convenience of fully cooked, all white chicken breast. It saves time and is a great shortcut ingredient for dinner.
Quality Meals- Swanson Chunk Chicken Breast is 100% all white meat, 98% fat free, contains no preservatives and is the only branded canned chicken certified Heart Healthy by the American Heart Association.
So after some long thoughts about what I was going to create, I came up Tex Mex Swanson Chicken Wraps. I managed to spend the $10, but what I made for this, goes a long way because you only need so much of the additions in each wrap (think chips and dips for leftovers).
Tex Mex Swanson Chicken Wraps
created by myself, should make about 6 wraps + some leftovers
Chicken:
1 can of 12.5 oz. Swanson Chicken, drained
1 can of 12.5 oz. Swanson Chicken, drained
1/4 tsp. taco seasoning mix (homemade here)
Combine the chicken and taco seasoning mix and lightly toss together. Set aside. Can also be made ahead of time.
Tex Mex Sour Cream Sauce:
1/2 Cup lite sour cream
1 tsp. taco seasoning mix
2 tsp fresh lime juice
2 TBL fresh cilantro, finely diced
Combine all and set aside to let flavors come together. Can also be made ahead of time.
Pico de Gallo:
1/2 white onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, finely diced2 Roma tomatoes, diced
3 TBL fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tsp. fresh lime juice
Combine all and set aside for flavors to come together. Can also be made ahead of time.
Other ingredients:
1 can corn, drained
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 small can sliced olives, drained
1 avocado, diced
1 Cup shredded reduced fat Mexican cheese blend
6 Large lettuce leaves or small Whole wheat tortillas
Combine corn and black beans together.
To assemble wraps, lay down a lettuce leaf or tortilla, and add in layers using 2 TBL of each: pico de gallo, chicken, corn and beans, olives, avocado, cheese and sauce. Carefully wrap up and secure with a toothpick. Enjoy!

Those wraps look delicious! I wish I had some of that chicken right now so I could whip those up for dinner tonight!

The wraps have avocado in them, so I already love them, and they're summery and fresh-looking and I kind of want to eat one for lunch tomorrow. Except if I were making them I'd skip out on the cilantro - even the smell of it makes my sinuses hurt.

Those look great! I love anything with cilantro and avocado. They would be a yummy summer dinner.

Thought your recipe was great, especially for a hot summer night, when you want something delicious, but not as filling as a hot meal would be.

Minus the avocado, I think they sound really good. It also looks like a pretty quick meal.
