Family Sized Baked Burrito!!

Here is another one of my family’s favorites… We had this for supper last night and everyone ate it and loved it as usual.  I have a 1 ½ year old and he ate it up (I love it when they are at that age where they eat anything). You can use red or green salsa and both taste great. I actually do not put the tomatoes on top but it is good either way. Enjoy!!

Family Sized Baked Burrito:

Ingredients:

• 1 plum tomato, thinly sliced
• 3 c diced cooked chicken
• 1/2 c chopped onion
• 1/2 lime
• 3/4 c thick and chunky salsa
• 1 tbs southwestern seasoning mix* or taco seasoning
• 4 garlic cloves, pressed
• 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese, divided
• 4 burrito-size flour tortillas (11-11 1/2 in)**
• 1 can (9 oz) bean dip*** .
• Assorted toppings such as shredded lettuce sliced pitted ripe olives, snipped fresh cilantro…

1. Preheat oven to 425º. Thinly slice tomato, set aside. Dice chicken. Chop onion. Juice lime half into bowl (juice the other half, too – put it in a baggy and freeze for next time.) Add chicken, onion, salsa, seasoning mix, and pressed garlic. Microwave chicken mixture 3-4 minutes or until hot, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the cheese (NOT ALL OF IT) save the other ½ cup for on top of the burrito once it is folded.
2. Arrange tortillas in an overlapping circular pattern on a large pizza stone (or cookie sheet), covering entire surface of the stone. (Tortillas will extend off edge of baking stone by 5 inches). Starting at center, spread bean dip over tortillas, forming a 10×10 inch square. Spoon chicken mixture evenly over bean dip. Fold edges of tortillas up over chicken mixture in an envelope pattern. It will make a square.
3. Arrange 16 tomato slices in rows over top of burrito. Sprinkle remaining cheese over burrito, covering it completely. Bake 18-20 minutes or until cheese is melted and edges are browned. Cut into rectangles, serve with assorted toppings
