Easy to put together! My Mom gave this to me when I moved into my first apartment. It makes 8 big ones so you'll definitely have tasty leftovers! I like to add some chili powder and garlic to my chicken while it cooks, too. Also, I always keep a bag of frozen breasts ready to go; they're great for this recipe. Go ahead and substitute any meat, steak or ground turkey. Delicious served with sour cream or guacamole!
Ingredients:
2 cups boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 (15 ounce) can refried beans
32 ounces picante salsa, divided
3 cups cheddar cheese or 3 cups colby-monterey jack cheese, shredded, divided

1 cup tomato, diced
8 burrito-size flour tortillas

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Cook chicken in skillet with seasonings to taste.
3. While chicken cooks, mix together refried beans, 16 oz salsa, 1 cup of cheese, onion and tomato.
4. Shred cooked chicken and add to bean mixture.
5. Put 1/8 of mixture into each tortilla, roll and place in ungreased 9x13x2 inch pan.
