Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Ground Chicken, Turkey or Beef Use pasture raised organic

  1. Pre-heat over to 400 degrees
  2. In skillet add meat and green chile cans with all liquid
  3. After 5 minutes, add taco seasoning and refirend beans. Add 1/2 the water called for by the recipe, since you kept the liquid with the chiles
  4. Once cooked through, divide evenly in tortillas, adding 1 tbsp of cheese before rolling up tortilla
  5. Place all 12 tortillas, seam side down on a baking sheet. Spray lightly with cooking spray
  6. Cook in over for 10-15 minutes until tortilla browns.

Notes

This is a favorite in my house with everyone.  Serve with salsa and veggies. 
Vegan/Vegetarian/Plant Base - use two cans of refried beans and omit the cheese.
