Buffalo Chicken + Avocado BLT Wraps.
I feel kind of bad, BLT’s on St. Patrick’s Day?
I know BLT’s are good any day, but I sort of feel like I should have posted something a little more Irish today.
Hey, at least I have a little green, a little orange and a little white going on. I mean, those are the Irish colors after all (lets just pretend we don’t see that little pop of red).
What are you guys doing today?
Is it a totally normal day or are you heading out to one of the parades? Growing up in Cleveland, the St. Patrick’s Day parade was the place to be. I always remember my brothers trying to get out of school so they could go. I do not really remember ever going (but I did when I was little), but I know it’s one of my oldest brother’s favorite days. Oddly he looks extremely Irish, so I guess it makes sense. Unfortunately, he is the one with the broken neck, so he’ll be layin low in Colorado this year. I’m sure all his friends back in Cleveland will have an extra green beer for him.
So anyway, I made us wraps!!
AND I do not think I ever want to do it again. Wraps = one of the hardest things to photograph and try to make look pretty. There were multiple times that I said I was done and was just gonna skip the whole recipe, but then I couldn’t, because the recipe is so good. And simple, which makes it even better.
Basically, I am instructing you to make BLT’s, add some buffalo chicken + avocados + potato chips.
Oh and get this, I had this grand idea of stuffing the wraps with potato chips. It was so gooood, but I realized once I actually looked through the gazillion of photos I took, that I never actually added them into the wraps. Seriously, why do I do this to myself.
I need to learn to STOP and THINK before I photograph. It would really be so helpful. I need to make this my new goal.
Just make sure you don’t skip the potato chips. So good.
It gives the whole wrap a little crunch. Gotta love all that texture. Or at least I do!

Thank you so much, Meagan!
Oh my gosh these wraps have my name all of them. Totally appropriate for St. Paddy’s day and yes, I totally want these for lunch today. pinned!
Thanks so much, Sarah!
Your wraps are gorgeous. But I agree they are difficult to photograph. Glad you shared this with us.
Thanks Norma!
Fun recipe. I love wraps – potato chips on the side works!
Thank you, Liz!
I’m skipping the parade in Cleveland today – first time in quite a few years!
Excellent recipe, as usual.
Oh man, bummer! Hope you still do something fun! 🙂
Thanks Liz!
I swear your photos get prettier with every post! If I improve as fast as you have, I’ll be very happy with myself indeed! I love the look of these wraps. I think they are Irish enough, Tieghan … after all, they have potato chips inside!! Potatoes = Irish 😉
Ha! I wish I agreed with you, LOL! Thanks so much, Helen! 🙂
Just a quick question about ingredients…is it 1/4 cup butter or 1/2 cup butter? I think one stick is usually 1/2 cup. I’m only asking because I plan to make these ASAP! They look soooooo good! 🙂
Hey Lynn! You are right, I fixed the recipe and it is 1/2 cup. Thanks so much and I hope you enjoy these!!
These look outrageously good! Can’t wait to make them.
Thank you so much, Bri!
I bet the crunch from chips would be perfect! Can’t get enough buffalo chicken!
Gotta love buffalo chicken. It is my families favorite!
Thanks Jessica!
Lol, I know this isn’t a funny situation but I love how you nonchalantly were like, “oh yeah, he’s the one with the broken neck so he can’t participate” – sounds horrible though, I hope he gets better soon! I’m sure these wraps would put anyone in better spirits!!
Haha! It’s funny! 🙂
Thanks so much, Julie!
I love a little crunch in my wrap. Delicious! 🙂
Thanks so much, Amanda!! A little crunch is good! 🙂
Making these ASAP! Your recipes are so inspiring. And your photos make me hungry. Pinned!
Thanks LC!! Hope you love them!
It must be serendipity because I had all of the ingredients on hand to make this for lunch today. It was delicious!
Oh ya!! So happy you loved it! Thanks!! 🙂
Oh my goodness. I just ate lunch but this has made me want to get to cookin’ and eat lunch again. Wraps are a personal favorite. Yours looks incredible.
Haha! Thanks so much, Mandy!
I’d eat these BLT wraps ANY St. Patrick’s Day! 😉
Thanks so much, Brenda!
You have got nothing to feel bad about! I don’t care what day it is – a wrap like this one always fits perfectly. Love how scrumptious this looks!!
Thanks!
Any day is a good day to include bacon! Yummy!

I’m totally 110% behind the non-Irish wrap today – because how could I not swoon over these?! Buffalo and avocado in one delectable wrap? Done and done!
Thanks Megan!
Hi Tieghan, regardless what you think your wraps look gorgeous and looking at your other comments, I most think the same. Great job!!!
I agree, wraps and sandwiches can be so tricky to photograph, but you did a great job. And, I must say what you’ve got going on here is making me forget all about corned beef and cabbage. ; ) Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Thanks so much, Crystal! Happy St. Patricks Day!
BLT and Buffalo Chicken. It’s like reliving my collage years. Love it!
Thanks Julianne!
This is exactly what I want to eat for lunch right now!

Buffalo Chicken: it’s delicious.
Ok…this sounds yummy! Will have to try it. Thanks for sharing
Hope you love it thank you!!
We discovered this recipe on a warm spring evening when we were hoping to have a portable dinner to bring outside with neighbors. Suffice to say we became the envy of the neighborhood—including the ones who had purchased from a local food truck for the gathering! I almost skipped the chips—thank goodness I didn’t! So good we made it a second night in a row! Thank you!!
Hey Tory,
Thanks so much for giving this recipe a try, I am so glad that it was enjoyed! Have a great week:) xTieghan
