Healthy Low-Fat Curry Chicken Salad Wrap Recipe #292144
This is a healthy & refreshing meal, that is low-fat and pretty simple to make. It has a bit of an Asian twist to it with the cilantro and curry; especially when you substitute rice paper in place of tortillas. It also make a great appetizer, if you want to slice the wraps into 4 pieces after rolling them.
