These are a delicious, mostly nutritious dinner!
If there are only two or three of you eating dinner, I would make the whole recipe, freeze half the filling (before adding cheese) in a ziploc bag, and you can easily thaw it and make it again for dinner another time. Also, I highly, highly recommend using the uncooked tortillas you can find near the lunch meat section of the store. You just fry them until a little crispy, then use them like normal tortillas but they taste a million times better.
I honestly don't know where I got this recipe. So sorry if you think you invented it, but there's a million other similar recipes out there too so I don't think anyone really invented it. :)
Ingredients:
2 chicken breasts (or I used about 9 frozen chicken tenders), cooked and chopped
1/2 T. vegetable oil
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1/3 cup frozen corn (I used one can of corn)
1 can black beans, rinsed
1.5 cups spinach (I used fresh spinach and just cooked it as the recipe says with the other ingredients and it turned out fine)
1 can green chiles
1 tsp. parsley
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. salt
dash of cayenne pepper
3/4 cup monterey jack cheese (I used pepper jack and cheddar)
10 flour tortillas
Cook red pepper and spinach on stove until tender. Add corn and black beans, green chilies, parsley, cumin, chili powder, salt and cayenne pepper. Add already cooked and chopped chicken. Stir well, remove from heat and add cheese. Wrap filling in freshly cooked and crispy flour tortillas.
Avocado Dip:
1 avocado
1/4 cup mayonnaise
3/4 cup sour cream
1 T. buttermilk (or fresh milk with a little lemon juice)
1 1/2 tsp. white vinegar
1/8 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. parsley
1/8 tsp. onion powder
dash of dill weed
dash of garlic powder
dash of pepper
Mix all together. Garnish with tomatoes and green onion.
