Problem: The Pinwheels are Falling Apart

Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla wrap towards the center, tucking in any of the fillings you have leftover. Roll the wrap, making sure to tuck in any filling that spills out. As you reach the end, spread some sauce over the remainder of the tortilla wrap to help it seal.

Cheese, Please!

Placing cheese over the spread acts as a "glue" for your toppings. The melted cheese adheres to the ingredients, creating a cohesive structure. Opt for cheeses with a gooey texture like melted mozzarella or cheddar to lock everything in place.

To prevent your chicken wrap from drying out, be sure to use moist ingredients like tomatoes, avocadoes or sprouts. These ingredients will enhance the taste of your wrap, plus add moisture to prevent the wrap from drying out and falling apart.
