Taco Chicken Wraps

This is an old recipe I dug up last week and it was super easy, tasty, can be made from canned stuff you have on hand, relatively healthy and the whole family loved it. I think I actually got this from Jen years and years ago. It is just a different twist on Mexican fare, but very tasty. The key is oven baking them and freshly shredding your cheese - makes it so melty and yummy. Enjoy!

Ingredients: 
1 can (10oz) diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained
1 large can chunk white chicken, drained
1 C shredded sharp cheddar and/or monterey jack cheese
2 T diced jalapeno peppers (*add however much to taste for your family's spice level)
2 tsp taco seasoning 6 flour tortillas (6in)
Toppings: taco sauce, salsa, sour cream, avocado - all optional

Instructions: 
In small bowl, combine tomatoes, chicken, cheese, jalapenos and taco seasoning. Place about 1/3 cup down the center of each tortilla. Roll up and place seam side down in greased baking dish. Bake uncovered at 350˚ for 10-15 min or until heated through. Serve with desired toppings.

Tips: 
You can mix up the chicken mix earlier in the day, then just take it out of the fridge and roll up your wraps when you are ready to go. I baked them in the toaster oven to save energy and it was perfect.
