• 2-3 cups grated Mexican cheese blend
• 1 block of cream cheese, softened,
• 2 Tablespoons milk
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon chili powder

  DIRECTIONS:

1. Combine cream cheese, milk, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well.
2. Shred the chicken and combine with cream cheese mixture.
3. On a pancake griddle or in the microwave, warm tortillas on both sides and melt a few tablespoons of cheese on the top.
4. Put about 3 Tablespoons of the chicken mixture inside, then fold in half. Repeat with all 16 tortillas.
5. Brush them lightly with olive oil and give them all a light sprinkling of salt on each side.
