Ingredients

  • 1 lbs skinless, boneless chicken breast
  • 12 whole wheat flour tortillas
  • 2 large stalks celery - (finely chopped)
  • 4 oz reduced fat cream cheese - (room temp)
  • 2 tbsp light butter - (melted)

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Mist with cooking spray.
