We had tortillas that needed using, so we warmed them in a skillet until they puffed up and became wonderfully chewy and delicious. Then we piled in the chicken, peppers, beans and sauce and made a few quesadilla-style wraps.
It was exactly the kind of protein-packed fuel needed before a 30-minute driveway workout.
