- 2 Tablespoons milk

- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Olive oil
- More salt for sprinkling
DIRECTIONS:
- Combine cream cheese, milk, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well.
- Shred the chicken and combine with cream cheese mixture.
- On a pancake griddle or in the microwave, warm tortillas on both sides and melt a few tablespoons of cheese on the top.
- Put about 3 Tablespoons of the chicken mixture inside, then fold in half. Repeat with all 16 tortillas.
- Brush them lightly with olive oil and give them all a light sprinkling of salt on each side.
- Bake at 450°F for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with guacamole and Pico.
