Nutrition
Ingredients
- 1 serving Daring Plant Chicken Pieces (2.5 oz, 70 g)
- 1 Tortilla highly recommend Mission Plant Protein tortillas or something with similar macros.
- 1/2 serving High Protein Caesar Dressing
- 1/2 serving Vegan Parmesan
- Romaine Lettuce
Instructions
- Cook the Daring Plant Chicken Pieces per package instructions. Other brands will work too. I'd recommend un-breaded ones if you want the calories and macros to be similar.
- Making the High Protein Caesar Dressing per the recipe linked above.
- Make your wrap! I like to lay a base of romaine lettuce down, then vegan chicken, followed by the Caesar Dressing and vegan parmesan.
- If you're packing this to take somewhere, you might want to roll it up like a burrito. I like to brown the outside of the tortilla in a medium-heat pan, especially on the seam, so that it doesn't open up on you.

Notes
This High Protein Vegan Chicken Caesar Wrap is the perfect high protein, high fiber lunch! It’s quick and easy to make and great for meal prepping too! I use Daring Vegan Chicken Pieces, which have amazing macros, by the way, but you could use another vegan chicken as well. I would recommend using an un-breaded variety to keep the macros and calories similar.
I also use a lower carb tortilla to add protein and fiber. The Caesar Dressing is made with silken tofu so it’s lower in fat and higher in protein than store-bought versions. If you make this Caesar Dressing and need some other ideas for how to use it, check out my High Protein Caesar Salad! If you’ve been craving a good Caesar Salad since going vegan, this one will hit the spot!
Stuff You’ll Need
- Vegan Chicken Pieces – I used Daring Chicken, because the macros are really great! You can use a different brand as well, but I would try to find an un-breaded variety if you want to keep the macros and calories similar to what’s listed in the recipe card.
- Romaine Lettuce – I used Romaine because it’s nice and crunchy, but you can use whatever greens/lettuce you like best! Spinach or kale would be a little more nutritional and add a bit more protein.
- Vegan Parmesan – I really like Violife Parmesan for this, but you can use your favorite vegan parm. This is an optional ingredient if you’re not really into vegan cheese.
- Tortilla – I used low carb/high protein tortillas, because they have excellent macros and are also a lot of fiber.
- High Protein Caesar Salad Dressing – I make my Caesar Dressing with blended silken tofu, which means it has more protein than store-bought salad dressings. If you are going to use a store-bought option instead, just know that the calories and macros may differ from what’s listed in the recipe card.
How to Make This & Pictures
- Cook the vegan chicken per the package instructions. I cook mine in a medium-heat pan for a couple minutes on each side.
- Make the High Protein Caesar Dressing per the recipe linked.
- Make the wrap.
- I like to start with a base of lettuce, followed by the vegan chicken pieces.
- Then add the dressing and vegan parmesan.
- If you are going to be traveling with this or taking it for a work/school lunch or something, I would recommend rolling it up like a burrito. Tuck the ends in and roll it up. I like to toss it in a medium-heat pan for a few seconds, specifically on the seam, to make sure it will stay sealed and not spill out.

Protein Deficient Vegan
These all sound great. Just concerned about how much sodium is in the Daring plant based products. I’m very cautious of how much sodium my family and I consume. I’m the only vegetarian in the family. I can’t eat soy either so that puts a damper on things. Anyway I just started watching your YouTube channel. I can use all the help I can get with vegan meals. It’s a real challenge sometimes. Making sure we all get the protein we all need. My mom is 79 and I am 54. So protein is important for all of us as well as my husband.
Hi! I kind of spot checked a bunch of other vegan chicken brands, and they’re all around the same sodium content unfortunately. Since you can’t eat soy, a soy-free tofu like fava bean tofu might be a good alternative that’s lower in sodium but still high in protein 🙂
