YOU WON'T MISS MY POSTS!!! (I'm taking a laptop)...so I'll be posting PROBABLY 1 time daily!

Ok per the request of Brandi

A LA CHICKEN BURRITO JEN

**this receipe is for 2 people, adjust according to how many you wish to feed

2 boneless, skinnless chicken breast grilled
after they are done shred them with a small knife and fork, sprinkle with taco seasoning until covered, pour 1/2 c salsa on them and microwave for 1-2 min on high.

Prepare your flour tortilia by using a damp paper towel and layering it with the tortilia microwave on high for 10-20 seconds

lay tortilia on a plate, add 1/2 the chicken mixture to each tortilia, and top with (my favorites)

tomato
onion
jalepino
black olive
rice (optional for those watching carbs)
ff refried beans (if you like them, i don't)
shredded low cal chedder cheese
ff sour cream
taco sauce
more salsa if desired

WRAP and EAT!!! (I have to use a fork normally) I tell ya, one fills you up, and it's SUPER GOOD!!!

ok...now have fun making them!!!

huggies
Jen

Hi, Jen! I know I haven't been around much (working on an emergency case -- got home from work at 1 am and back here at 7:30 this a.m. )

Just wanted to wish you the best trip EVER!! I hope the kids love every bit of the experience, from the flight on. I will be thinking of you and hoping that you are enjoying applying all your determination and positive attitude to a whole new experience. You are going to love it!

Think of us all back here, sending you positive thoughts and pixie dust! I will really miss our , but will look forward to catching up with you later!

God bless and Happy Birthday too (a little early)!
