Chicken & Salsa Burritos


I was bored with my typical chicken dinners and decided to browse www.myrecipes.com for a new idea.  I found this Chicken & Salsa Bake video and thought heck, I could throw this together quickly.  It came out AMAZING, full of flavor and one of the easiest meals Ive found in a long time.  Below is the recipe but here is the video link:  http://www.myrecipes.com/quick-and-easy/dinner-tonight/how-to-cook-baked-chicken-tortillas-10000001853215/

Ingredients
1 cup bottled salsa (I used chunky salsa for chip dipping)
1 (8-ounce) sour cream
6 (10-inch) flour tortillas
3 cooked chicken breast (I cubed the chicken and pan cooked in olive oil)
1/3 cup chopped tomato

1/3 cup chopped green or red bell pepper
1/4 cup chopped onion
Cooking spray
Shredded Mexican Blend cheese



Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350°.


Combine salsa and sour cream in a small bowl, and spread evenly over each tortilla. Divide chicken, tomato, bell pepper, and onion evenly down center of each tortilla, and roll up like a burrito. Place rolls, seam sides down, in a large baking dish coated with cooking spray. Top with with a little salsa & cheese. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes.  Serve with Spanish Rice on the side and Avocado as a topper!!! 


* I did one thing different than the video, I sauteed the onion and green pepper with a little olive oil to soften before placing it in the burrito.
