Chicken salad lettuce wrap

We made the chicken salad with  a nice Mediterranean twist to it.  The chicken salad can be made in advance and it is great for school lunch or lunch with friends.   It can be served by itself, or inside a wrap. We used lettuce wraps as a healthier alternative. Just add a  desired amount of chicken salad into the lettuce leaf, wrap it up and enjoy!
