Southwest roll-ups

Submitted by Pansori

"While visiting my mom we found this recipe in a magazine. We tweaked on it a little bit, and instead of shredding the chicken, we just cubed it and rolled it up in the tortilla with everything else. It was delicious! My brother LOVED this! He couldn't get enough of it."

These are delicious!! The only change I made was to increase the amount of the chicken (I shredded) to an extra cup and I used a can of diced green chilis in place of the jalapenos as a personal choice. Such a great combo of ingredients! I used a colby/monterey jack cheese blend and served with Mexican rice for a tasty and easy dinner. Thanks for sharing this great recipe :) Made for PAC Spring 09

I made it without the Chicken for vegetarians and it was fabulous! I can't wait to try it with Chicken.

I agree the amount of chicken should be increased to balance out the refried beans. This was quick and tasty and I'll make this again.

I shredded the chicken & used a cheddar/monterey jack combo, then served with sour cream, salsa & guacamole. It was very tasty but I will increase the amount of chicken & cheese next time. Thanx Barb!
