We have been using the grill so much this summer! At least twice a week, the grill is fired up and cooking us up something super delicious. I can't get enough of it. My favorite thing to make is anything with grilled veggies. Any type of vegetable that you can grill, we have been grilling it. Peppers, onions, carrots, potatoes, zucchini, eggplant, green beans, asparagus, etc. etc. I love it!
I first made these Grilled Chicken and Vegetable Wraps for my cousin who came to visit us at a nearby park for a picnic. They turned out so, so good and I immediately said that I needed to make them again for the blog. They feature leftover grilled chicken and vegetables.
We recently had a bunch of leftover veggies and grilled chicken from and I chopped everything up, spread some hummus on a whole-wheat wrap and added pepper jack cheese. Just roll it up, cut into pieces and enjoy.
To give proper credit, my brother made these grilled vegetables and they are the best that I've ever had. They are so, so flavorful! I can't stop eating them (which is good because we have tons of leftovers). He marinated them in a balsamic vinaigrette and it was the most amazing summer side dish. My brother is awesome at grilling. I'm so glad that I made these wraps with them because they are delicious. You can feel free to use your favorite vegetables for these.
What I love about these is that they are totally customizable based on what you have on hand. Go to your favorite farmer's market and pick the best looking produce and add it to these which will give you the best tasting quesadilla possible. I serve them cold because I think that they taste the best that way but you can warm them up if you prefer. These are amazing to take to a picnic and hold up very well.

For this recipe, I chose to use Sargento® Slices pepper jack cheese from Meijer. We have been loving these especially since the weather got warmer to have as snacks. They are so easy to eat because I do not have to slice them up and Adalyn loves them too (so much so that she has been going in the fridge and stealing them when I am not looking!).
The pepper jack cheese gave this wrap just the right amount of spice and flavor. If you are not a fan of spicy, feel free to swap it out for sharp cheddar cheese which I love too. These Sargento 100% real, natural cheese slices also come in swiss, havarti, Smokehouse Cheddar™ and more. We love these for cheese and crackers, on a sandwich, melted on top of grilled chicken, etc. A favorite combination is hummus, whole grain bread, turkey, cucumber slices and any one of these cheese flavors. Yum!
