Easy, Low-Carb Chicken Salad Wraps recipe submitted by Julie Lammers*
To make a whole-foods diet happen with work and family schedules, we often rely on leftovers that can be reassembled into new meals the next day or frozen for later use.
This recipe makes for an easy, refreshing summer lunch and a great way to use extra chicken from last night’s dinner. An extra virgin olive oil-based aioli is the basis for the dressing for this salad and pairs well with the fresh dill. You could also use a high-quality (recognizable ingredient list, organic if possible) store-bought aioli that meets your dietary requirements.

Instructions
- With an immersion blender in a wide mouth pint jar, blend all aioli ingredients.
- Mix celery, onion, chicken, dill, and aioli in a medium sized mixing bowl.
- Open a lettuce leaf on a plate and lightly crush the stiff main stem with the bottom of a cup. Do this by lightly pounding on the main stem of the leaf with your cup a couple of times. This will help the leaf roll without breaking.
- Add 1/3 cup of the chicken salad to the middle of the leaf and rollup the end and sides, like a burrito. Salad can also be simply served on a bed of lettuce.
