In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until the mushroom liquid is evaporated and mushrooms begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the cooked chicken, thyme, parsley, salt and black pepper and cook about 2 minutes.
Divide the chicken and mushroom mixture, spinach leaves, red onion, cherry tomatoes and cucumber slices among the 4 tortillas. Roll the tortillas into wraps.
Pair these wraps with a light side to create a complete, filling meal. A cup of Low Sodium Tomato Soup or a side of Greek Edamame Salad complements the Mediterranean-inspired flavors perfectly.
