Leeroy Chicken Tortillas

Here is the weekday dinner that is a hit with the whole family. We fill whole wheat tortillas with cooked chicken, small pieces of Leeroy sausage, and lots of cheese. A pinch of Tajín, a trip to the oven, and the edges become golden and crispy, a bit like a pizza. Fresh out of the oven, we top them with a nice, fresh, lemony salad with the hot sauce of your choice. It’s perfect for using up leftover chicken and for getting the kids involved in the assembly.
