Spicy Chicken Tortilla Wrap


Spicy Chicken Tortilla Wrap: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

This wrap is spicy and packet with flavor. What makes it even better is you can prepare the filling in advanced and refrigerate until ready and then spread on the tortillas.

Depending on how big your tortillas are and how much you put in the tortillas it will vary on how many servings this will yield. I've had it serve between five and eight.
