Easy Low-Carb Chicken Avocado Wraps: A Family Dinner Favorite

These days, my kids take turns cooking dinner once a week. Luc loves wraps, so they featured on his menu—and I turned them into a low-carb version for myself.

Not only do they cook, but I guide them while letting them handle as much as possible. They choose the menu, as long as it includes plenty of vegetables. Luc adores rice and pasta, but he picks wraps weekly because they're simple and tasty. You can imagine I step in occasionally for healthier tweaks. This time, he made regular wraps for the family, and I used PowerSlim low-carb wraps.

How to Make Low-Carb Chicken Wraps

As an experienced home cook focused on balanced eating, I prioritize low-carb dinners to maintain my weight. When the kids opt for wraps, I make low-carb ones for myself using PowerSlim wraps, while they enjoy their favorites. Flexibility keeps everyone happy—sometimes low-carb for all, sometimes not.

For context, PowerSlim is a proven weight loss program created by dietitians. It pairs personal coaching (with 350 coaches in the Netherlands and 100 in Belgium) and low-carb meals. Having their wraps at home makes it effortless to customize.

Low-Carb Wraps: A Satisfying Dinner Option

I used to wonder if wraps suffice for dinner, but generous toppings make them filling. Add extra salad if needed—you get low-carb benefits without sacrificing flavor or portion size.

Prep the Ingredients

  • Pit the avocados and cut into pieces
  • Mix salt, pepper, and lime juice into the avocado
  • Cut the peppers into pieces
  • Boil, shock, and slice the eggs
  • Halve the tomatoes
  • Wash and thinly slice the iceberg lettuce
  • Chop the red onion and slice spring onions into rings

Assemble Your (Low-Carb) Wraps

The process is identical whether using low-carb or regular wraps—just swap the base.

  • Warm wraps briefly in the microwave (per package instructions)
  • Spread with herb cheese
  • Add 1-2 slices smoked chicken breast
  • Top with onion, spring onion, avocado mix, alfalfa, lettuce, and peppers
  • Roll up and secure with a skewer
  • Garnish with egg slices, tomatoes, and coriander for a beautiful presentation
  • Enjoy!
