I wasn't sure how many tortillas the recipe called for. I used 6 large ones, 1 per serving. I used Poached Chicken Breast #101403 for the cooked chicken, and followed the recipe as directed. The salsa in the filling and the lime juice and chili powder in the topping were just what was needed to disguise the "fat-free". I did top mine with chopped black olives because I had some on hand. I will be making these again. A healthy, tasty meal with a side of Spanish rice. Made for Alphabet Soup Game.
