Casual Friday Has Never Looked This Good

Happy Friday, ladies!  We’ve made it through another week, and in all honesty, I cannot believe February is almost halfway over.  Where is the time going?  I think we’re all ready for Spring to arrive, that’s for sure.  And although the weather here in Athens has warmed considerably, we’re just not quite there yet.  So in hopes of moving Spring alone more quickly, I’m going full technicolor today—in stark contrast to yesterday’s neutral OOTD.  We’re featuring a cozy striped funnel-neck sweater and one of the easiest (and most delicious) recipes yet!  

Cozy striped funnel-neck sweater

Today’s OOTD is a super simple colorful way to make the transition from winter to spring.  This cozy striped funnel-neck sweater is from Ann Taylor but already sold out!  (Like so many things these days.)  So, I’ve rounded up similars here, here, and here.  I went matchy-matchy with these red pants from Frances Valentine.  My ballet flats are old, but again, I’ve found similar here, here, and here).

Instructions

• Preheat your grill over medium-high heat to 425 degrees. Pound chicken to an even thickness using the flat side of a meat mallet.
• Brush chicken breasts lightly with about 1 Tbsp olive oil, season with salt and pepper.
• Brush grill grates lightly with oil, and grill chicken, rotating once halfway through cooking until it registers 165 in center, about 6 – 8 minutes.
• Transfer to a plate, cover with foil, let rest 10 minutes then dice into cubes. Transfer chicken to a bowl, pour vinaigrette over chicken, and toss to evenly coat.
• To assemble wraps spread about 3 Tbsp hummus over each tortilla, top with chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, and feta cheese, then wrap tortillas.

Notes

I substituted the chicken breasts with a rotisserie chicken. No muss no fuss.
