Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked Chicken

  • 8 Tortillas
  • 1 cup Cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup Sour cream
  • 1 package Velveeta cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the cheddar cheese and sour cream.
  4. Take a tortilla and spoon some of the chicken mixture into the center, then sprinkle with the cheddar cheese mixture. Roll the tortilla and place it seam-side down in a greased baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

Notes

Use cooked rotisserie chicken to save time. Warm tortillas before filling to prevent cracking. For more texture, mix in black beans or corn.
