Ingredients

For the honey mustard:

½ cup Dijon or yellow mustard
¼ cup honey

6 (8- or 9-inch) whole wheat tortillas

Instructions

To make the honey mustard, combine mustard and honey in a small bowl and stir until well combined. Taste and add more honey or mustard, to your liking.
To make the roll ups, spread about 3-4 tablespoons cream cheese across middle of each tortilla. Top with 2 teaspoons honey mustard mixture.
Layer 4-5 small slices of chicken, ¼ cup broccoli slaw and 6-8 tomato halves on bottom third of tortilla.
Fold bottom of tortilla up and over fillings then roll all the way up. Place seam side down in container, or slice in half or 1-inch pinwheel rolls.

Notes

Tortillas: I use 8- or 9-inch tortillas. You can use any size you want but you’ll need to adjust the amounts of filling for each one. Don’t overstuff so you can roll them up properly.

Honey mustard: I make a simple homemade version, but you could also substitute a store-bought honey mustard.

Broccoli slaw: I like the texture and crunch of the broccoli slaw — and it holds up well to be made in advance, without wilting or getting soggy — but you could sub regular cabbage coleslaw or lettuce if you prefer.

Chicken: The chicken for this recipe needs to be already cooked, so please plan accordingly. You can use a rotisserie chicken from the store, crock pot shredded chicken or baked or boiled chicken breasts.

Serving: You can serve these as big wraps, cut in half or cut in small sushi-like rolls, depending on your needs.
