02 - 4 large flour tortillas (burrito size)
03 - 2 slices white or whole wheat sandwich bread

# Method:

01 - Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
02 - Place sandwich bread slices in a shallow dish and pour 1/2 cup of hot gravy over both slices until well soaked without falling apart. Set aside.
03 - Heat tortillas in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds to increase pliability.
04 - Lay each tortilla flat and layer 1/4 cup stuffing, 1/2 cup shredded chicken, one soaked bread slice torn if necessary, 2 tablespoons cranberry sauce, 1/4 cup greens, and a cheese slice if using. Season with salt and pepper.
05 - Fold sides of the tortilla inward and roll tightly from the bottom to enclose all fillings.
06 - Place wraps seam-side down in the skillet and toast for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden and heated through, pressing gently with a spatula.
07 - Serve immediately with remaining hot gravy for dipping.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes like a holiday dinner stuffed into something you can actually eat with one hand while doing other things.
  • The crispy tortilla shell holds all the saucy fillings without falling apart like bread would.
  • You can have it ready faster than ordering takeout, and it feels way more special.
02 -
  • The gravy-soaked bread is not optional; it's the whole reason this works better than just a regular wrap, so commit to letting it really soak and don't rush that step.
  • If your tortilla is cold when you start rolling, it will crack and frustrate you—that ten-second microwave warming might seem silly, but it genuinely changes everything.
03 -
  • If you're making these for a group, you can prep all the filling layers in advance and assemble right before cooking, which keeps everything organized and less chaotic.
  • A non-stick skillet makes this task easier, but cast iron will give you an even more beautiful golden crust if you don't mind the extra attention.
