LEFT OVERS: HONEY LIME CHICKEN TORTILLAS WITH VEGGIES

 Cheated a little tonight hubby had bought some wheat tortillas.    So here we go.

INGREDIENTS:
2 Table spoons of Rice Vinegar
2 Table spoons honey
Left over soup chicken
2 Mexican Squashes.
Tortillas homemade store bought.
3 garlic cloves.
1 lime
Slices of cheese.
 Hot Garlic Chili Sauce  optional.
1 Avocado


Take out the chicken and with a sharp knife chop it up no rhyme or reason, do the best you can.
 Chopped chicken.  Now it's up to you how much you want to use.  I used 1 3/4 cup.  
 If you still have more here is what I do.   Put it in a freezer container and fill it with water or broth, this will prevent freezer burn.    Then when you want to use the chicken take it out of the freezer and let it thaw a day in the refrigerator or fill up a pot cover it with water and put on medium high, then strain off water.   Now if it is broth you want to keep the broth not throw it out.   Put the frozen broth in a pot with about 1/2 cup water, this will not effect the flavor, turn to medium low and put the lid on. Check and turn often until all the meat is thawed out.   either make a soup or refreeze broth. Your choice. 
 Chop garlic and add rice vinegar to pan, turn to medium low and stir until you smell the strong smell of the vinegar, turn burner off.
 Use a veggie peeler on the squash.  Peel away.
 Lot's of peel.
 Add the peeled squash to pan with honey.
 Slice up a lime as thin as possible and take each lime and squeeze into the pan with  squash, and throw the limes in after their squeezed. 
 Add the chicken to the mixture, now turn on the burner to Medium   High and use a metal prongs to metal tongs to mix and move the veggies.  All you are doing is cooking the veggies that it.  And they cook fast so watch them.
 Cooked down veggies.   Remove the limes. 
 I use the veggie peeler to slice the cheese.  3 very thin slices.    CHEEEEEESE!!!!




Hot chili garlic sauce is optional











Avocado is a must.











Add a helping of veggies and meat. 

 Fold











When flipping the tortilla, make sure the opening is facing the metal spatula.   And do it slowly, using your other hand to help it. 





ENJOY!
