I had one lone large chicken breast I needed to cook. So, the kids suggested I make their favorite Burrito. They would eat these weekly if I'd make them...LOL I grilled my chicken and shredded, but you can use any shredded chicken. Add to or take away to your liking. They are delicious just as they are, though. Enjoy
