Preparation

Step 1

Directions

In a large bowl mix together the chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, salsa, cheddar and spinach. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Working with one tortilla at a time add 2 heaping tablespoons of the chicken mixture off center and spread out like a log. Roll up and set seam side down on a platter. Repeat until all the tortillas are filled and rolled.

Add enough oil to a large skillet to generously cover the bottom. Heat on medium to medium-low heat, cook tortillas in batches, turning to brown each side. Remove to paper towels to drain.

Serve with your choice of dunking sauce.
do not add so much cheese, easy on cream cheese, sour cream, & cheddar
make ahead and chill. add lettuce & tomatoes on top and top with taco sauce or whatever you like.
