  • 1/2 cup Ortega Original Black Beans
  • 8 Ortega Cauliflower and Flour Tortillas

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Set aside.

  3. Roast the chicken in the oven for 25 minutes or until the internal temperature is 165 degrees F. Set it aside to cool slightly. Keep the oven on and coat a clean baking sheet with cooking spray.
  4. Once the chicken has rested and cooled slightly, shred the chicken meat and add it to a medium bowl. Add the cheese and beans and mix well.
