Whether you are hosting a Summer cook out, packing a picnic or sharing food at a potluck, wraps are a perfect addition. The ingredient options are endless. These Grilled Southwest Chicken Wraps have the traditional flavors of the Southwest – chili powder and cumin, and the addition of coleslaw and topped with a mixture of sour cream and pico de gallo – making them a hit with everyone.
Grilling is such a huge part of everyone’s Summer, including ours. We often grill a whole package of chicken breasts at the same time, freeze some for a later meal and enjoy the rest throughout the week. It’s less expensive to buy a large package also.

The dressing is a simple mixture of sour cream and Pico de Gallo. We have found the Marketside brand at Walmart, found in the produce section to be our favorite. And the coleslaw mix is also from the produce section. Quick and easy…gotta love that!
Along with these Grilled Southwest Chicken Wraps – a salad and Grilled Peach and Blueberry Cobbler were served at our Summer party. Come on over and see how I pulled together this gorgeous table with fresh fruit and herbs as the centerpiece.
