Tips/Notes
- I used flame-grilled seasoned chicken breast strips that I purchased from Walmart's cold food section. You could also use rotisserie chicken or cook your own chicken.
- I used seasoned store-bought croutons. Because of their size, I cut them down to about ½ inch.
- I used Ken's Lite Creamy Caesar dressing, but you can use your favorite store-bought or homemade Caesar dressing.
- The flour tortillas are heated, making them more pliable and less likely to tear. I would avoid heating them in the microwave, as this tends to make them gummy and causes the edges to harden quickly.
