Ingredients:

For the dip
1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise
2 oz. crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons low-fat sour cream
2 pickled pepperoncini peppers, stems removed, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 teaspoons drained capers
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon marjoram
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley

For the wraps:
4 10 to 12-inch spinach-flavored tortillas (can substitute flour tortillas)
2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
1 cup chopped canned artichoke hearts (drained)
1/2 cup chopped jarred roasted red peppers
1/4 cup chopped jarred pepperoncini peppers
1 cucumber, thinly sliced
1/2 small red onion, sliced
4 cups loosely packed baby spinach leaves, washed and drained

Directions: To make the dip, place ingredients (mayonnaise to parsley) in a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Process about 1 minute, until thoroughly mixed. (Note: The mixture will not be completely smooth because of the feta.) You will have about &frqac12; cup of dip. If not using immediately, cover and refrigerate for up to one week.

To make the wraps, warm the tortillas in the oven or microwave to soften, then lay on a flat work surface. Spread one side of each tortilla evenly with about 2 tablespoons of the dip. Place ½ cup of the shredded chicken in the center of each tortilla. Top the chicken with artichoke hearts, roasted red peppers, pepperoncini peppers, cucumber, red onion, and fresh spinach leaves, dividing evenly between the four tortillas. Fold the sides of each tortilla toward the center over the filling. Start at the bottom, roll away from you, like a log, pressing the rolled portion firmly while rolling and tucking in the sides as you go. Cut in half and serve.
