Description

Refreshing and flavorful wraps packed with protein, featuring grilled shrimp and zesty Caesar dressing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 large romaine lettuce leaves
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)
  • 4 whole wheat wraps or tortillas
  • Optional: red onion slices, avocado slices, croutons for added crunch

Instructions

  1. Start by marinating the shrimp! In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss in the shrimp, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let them marinate for about 10-15 minutes for maximum flavor.
  2. While the shrimp marinates, prepare your vegetables. Rinse and dry the romaine lettuce leaves and chop the cherry tomatoes in half. If you’re adding optional toppings like red onion or avocado, slice them now.
  3. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated shrimp and grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are pink and opaque.
  4. Once the shrimp is cooked, it’s time to assemble your wraps! Lay a whole wheat tortilla flat, start with a layer of romaine lettuce, followed by grilled shrimp, sliced cherry tomatoes, and Parmesan cheese. Drizzle with Caesar dressing.
  5. Fold the sides of the wrap inwards and roll it up from the bottom to the top, creating a tight seal.
  6. Slice the wraps in half and serve immediately.

Notes

Marinate shrimp the night before for maximum flavor and ease of preparation.
