  • 1/4 c green salsa
  • 1 T fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp garlic
  • 3 T chopped cilantro (optional, per usual)
  • 2 Tb sliced green onions
  • 2 c shredded, cooked chicken

  • small corn tortillas
1. Heat oven to 425. Line baking sheet with foil and spray.
2. Heat cream cheese in microwave until soft. Add salsa, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, onion powder, and garlic. Stir to combine, then add cilantro and green onions. Add chicken and cheese. Combine well.
3. Heat a few tortillas in the microwave until pliable (~2 minutes). Place meat mix onto tortilla and roll tightly. Place seam down on baking sheet. Cover rolled tortillas with damp towel to prevent cracking.
