Chicken Veggie Wrap

I love veggie wraps, but sometimes I like a little chicken in it.   This is very filling.  I like to use the very tasty whole wheat-high fiber-italian herb-flatbread (name bran I use is flat-out).   This wrap is about 300 calories.   If you want to make it less calories drop the chicken and go totally veggie.
