WW CAJUN CHICKEN SPINACH WRAPS 5 POINTS
WW friendly. Similar to the WW site chicken wrap, but with more spice and perfect for leftovers. The cajun spice is very robust, and with the addition of cayenne, this is a real zinger. WW counter figures 5 points, but by using smaller "Mission" 6 1/2" carb blance tortillas I think it's closer to 4 points, you could also sub fat free mayo, skip the evo and sub cooking spray.

CHIMICHURRI CHICKEN WRAPS
I created this recipe after making too much chimichurri sauce (again) for a baked chicken dinner. I used what I had on hand, and it turned out to be a favorite for me and my partner! It's super wholesome and can be a great lunch to take to work the next day!

CAJUN CHICKEN STUFFED WITH PEPPER JACK CHEESE & SPINACH RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Flatten the chicken to 1/4-inch thickness. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, combine the pepper jack cheese, spinach, salt and pepper. Combine the Cajun seasoning and breadcrumbs together in a small bowl. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the spinach mixture onto each chicken breast. Roll each chicken breast tightly and fasten the seams with several toothpicks. This part requires a tiny bit of skill and I typically use about 8 toothpicks in each roll to ensure none of the filling seeps out. Be sure to count how many total toothpicks were used! Brush each chicken breast with the olive oil. Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning mixture evenly over all. Make sure you get underneath, too. Sprinkle any remaining spinach and cheese on top of chicken (optional). Place the chicken seam-side up onto a tin foil-lined baking sheet (for easy cleanup). Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Remove the toothpicks before serving. Count to make sure you have removed every last toothpick. Serve whole or slice into medallions. *If you have little ones eating this or your spice tolerance is fairly low, halve the Cajun seasoning and double the breadcrumbs. Also, try substituting some of your favorite vegetables in place of the spinach. Some of my favorites include broccoli (parboiled before stuffing in the chicken) and crunchy chopped celery.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for this recipe. Chicken breasts are leaner, while thighs are more flavorful.
- Cook the chicken thoroughly: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. This ensures that it is safe to eat and prevents the spread of bacteria.
- Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach is the best choice for this recipe. It is crisp and flavorful, and it adds a nice pop of color to the wrap.
- Don't overstuff the wrap: Be careful not to overstuff the wrap, or it will be difficult to eat. Aim for a wrap that is about 1-inch thick.
- Use a variety of toppings: Feel free to add other toppings to your wrap, such as shredded cheese, sliced tomatoes, or diced avocado.
Conclusion:
Cajun spinach chicken wraps are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. They are filled with flavorful Cajun-spiced chicken, fresh spinach, and a variety of other toppings. These wraps are also easy to make, making them a great option for busy weeknights.
