Cook’s Notes
Nutritional Estimates Per Serving (1/6th): According to my calculations, each generous serving of slow cooker chicken wraps has about 526 calories, 12.4 g fat, 3.3 g sat fat, 135 mg cholesterol, 787 mg sodium, 51.4 g carbs, 7.6 g sugars, 2.4g fiber, 49 g protein.
I think you could very easily get 8 good-size portions with this recipe, since the 6 servings suggested by the original recipe makes very full wraps. Increasing the number of servings to 8 reduces the calories per serving to 394.
