Preparation
  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients. Shred your cooked chicken if you haven't done so already. Dice the avocado and chop the vegetables.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced avocado, ranch dressing, salt, and pepper. Stir until everything is well-coated and mixed together.
  3. Warm the tortillas in a skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds on each side or until soft and pliable.
Assembly
  1. Lay a tortilla flat on a plate. Scoop about ½ to ¾ cup of the chicken and avocado mixture in the center.
  2. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and cheese, making sure not to overfill.
  3. Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards and then roll it from the bottom up to encase the filling snugly. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Serving
  1. Slice each burrito in half if desired, and serve immediately with extra ranch dressing or your favorite salsa on the side. Enjoy!
