   Something I tried last week… I boiled brown rice (per directions on bag) I got some whole wheat soft tacos and Tostitos salsa con queso -medium.

   Spread a little salsa con queso on a soft taco. Heat for a few seconds in the microwave. Add rice and chicken (already hot). Roll them up and have yourself an eating good time!

   Hope this helps!

   Creamy chicken enchiladas:

   1 pound boneless chicken breasts diced
   1 8oz package cream cheese cut into cubes
   Flour or corn tortillas
   1 can diced green chili peppers
   ground cumin
   1 or 2 can green enchilada sauce
   Shredded cheese

   Cook the chicken in a skillet and when the chicken is done add the cream cheese, it will melt. As the cream cheese melts add the green chilis, and a couple of good dashes of cumin. Continue to heat on low until the cream cheese has melted.

   Fill a tortilla with the chicken mix, roll and place in a baking dish, Continue until the chicken mix is gone. Top with the enchilada sauce and sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 350 for about 10-15 min or until the sauce is nice and hot and the cheese is golden and bubbly.

   Polo Verde Sauce:
   3/4 cup butter
   3/4 cup flour
   1 1/2 tbsp cumin
   1 tsp garlic powder
   2 cups 1/2 and 1/2 or evaporated milk
   2 cups hot chicken stock (or hot water with bullion)
   1 small can diced green chili’s
   4 tbsp canned jalapenos chopped

   Melt the butter and stir in the flour. Let it cook and bubble for just a few minutes. Then whisk in the cumin and garlic powder. Then add a healthy splash of the 1/2 and 1/2 and whisk well, let it thicken up a bit. Then add a healthy splash of the stock, whisk and let it thicken up. Repeat until you have added all the liquids.

   Add the chili’s and jalapenos.

   This is good on a chicken tostada salad-tortilla bowels or layer of chips. Lettuce, chopped onions and tomatoes, sliced olived and canned sliced jalapenos, and some shredded cheese. Do 2 layers of these. Then add the sauce and serve with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole.

   Or shred it up and add to a qusadilla, taco, burrito etc…

   chicken enchiladas.
   -steam chicken and shread it.
   -make a quick enchilada sauce by blending four large tomatoes, some dry ground red chile (add little by little according to how hot you want it), salt, half a chopped onion, 4 garlic cloves, salt and a little cumin in the blender with a little water just to get it spinning.
   -cook the sauce in a pan on low heat until it thickens up a bit.
   -heat the CORN tortillas and fill them with the shreaded chicken (3 breasts should be enough for at least 8 enchiladas.
   -place the chicken filled tortillas in a baking dish, pour sauce over them , sprinkle with shreaded cheese (jack works fine)
   -put them in a preaheated 350º oven until cheese is melted.
