Santa Fe Chicken

So I am officially on spring break as of 4:00 Friday! I have a list a mile long on things I want to do in the next week and I know that there is no way I'll get to everything that I want to do.

One of my plans for this week is to do some serious cooking and baking. I started out the weekend by making a crock pot dish that I found on Pinterest. I did however tweak the recipe a bit and after making this dish there are a few more things that I would change the next time I make it. Not to say that it was bad, I just want a little more zing!

If I were to do this over I would add one more can of diced tomatoes and I would drain the tomatoes. I would also put hotter chilies in it. I really like spicy dishes when I'm thinking Tex-Mex.

There were plenty of left overs and my husband and I thought that perhaps this could be eaten in a wrap. All it would take is a little cornstarch to thicken it up and ta-da! You've got a new kind of wrap. This will be our lunch today.

I hope you give this one a try. It's very easy and really good.
