Alaska Salmon and Chipotle Wrap

Submitted by TexasToast R

"My very favorite way to eat canned salmon. It is so flavorful with lime and cilantro and a hint of spicy chipotle flavor all wrapped in a flour tortilla. I found this on a card in a magazine a while back (but I can't remember where)."

Very good. I changed a few things, since we didn't have everything on hand: I used mayo instead of sour cream, red wine vinegar instead of lime juice and added extra chipotle because we like our food spicy. It was very good, even with the changes, and I will definitely make it again.

Excellent! Wanted a change from egg or tuna salad sandwiches for Lenten Fridays, and wow! was this tasty. My husband, 16 YO and I absolutely loved it in our packed lunches and it stayed nice and neat, unlike some other wraps. A keeper, for sure!
