This is from Jessica Seinfeld's book: Deceptively Delicious...Made with ground turkey, diced turkey, ground chicken or diced chicken with both yellow squash and carrot puree. I also puree the chicken/turkey for a creamier consistancy
Ingredients:
1 cup sauteed or roasted chicken or tuekey, cubed (or pureed)
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded reduced fat
1/2 cup yellow squash, pureed
1/2 cup carrot, pureed
4 ounces cream cheese, reduced fat
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 whole-wheat tortillas, large
Directions:
1. Preheat oven 250F.
2. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper
3. In a large bowl, stir together Chicken or Turkey, cheese, squash, carrot, cream cheese, garlic powder and salt.
4. Cut the tortillas in half. Place on half on the work surface with the straight edge facing you. Spread about two tablespoons of the filling along that edge from one side to the other. Starting at the edge, roll the tortilla into a cigar shape, completely enclosing the filling. Place the seam-side down on the baking sheet. Stuff and roll the rest.
5. Bake until the tortillas begin to brown, 4-5 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.
