Buffalo Ranch Chicken Wrap

I'm getting ready to finally start another round of Game On and have been brainstorming for new ways to follow the diet.  I've been really enjoying buffalo ranch chicken wraps lately, but I would hate to waste my 100 calories just on the sauce (I've been mixing Hidden Valley Ranch with Sweet Baby Ray's Buffalo Wing Sauce).  I decided to do a quick google search to see if anyone has used greek yogurt to make a buffalo ranch sauch and this is what I found:

Buffalo Ranch Dipping Sauce
2 cups plain greek yogurt
1 packet ranch seasoning
3/4 cup hot sauce (I used Frank’s Red Hot Wings sauce)
In a small mixing bowl, whisk ranch seasoning into greek yogurt. When mixture is smooth, fold in hot sauce. Transfer to a small serving bowl. Refrigerate leftovers.

This way the greek yogurt can count as part of my protein and the amount of ranch seasoning and hot sauce involved will only use up a few of my calories, not all of them.


1 whole wheat wrap or tortilla
1 fully cooked chicken breast, diced



1/4 cup reduced-fat shredded cheese
1 Tablespoon Buffalo Ranch dipping sauce made with greek yogurt
5 green olives
Optional: add sliced or diced bell peppers



Spread sauce on whole wheat wrap, add chicken, olives, cheese and (optional peppers).  Fold wrap in half and microwave until cheese is melted.

Game On Diet plan
Fist sized portion of fruit or carbohydrate = whole wheat wrap
Palm sized portion of protein = chicken, cheese, greek yogurt
Thumb sized healthy fat = olives
Fist sized portions of vegetables = peppers
