Mexican Spicy Wraps

Tossed Salad
Pineapple Yogurt Dessert

This is another satisfying dinner that can be ready in 15 minutes. The yogurt dessert is refreshing after the spicy main dish. It can be prepared even more quickly if one person makes the salad and dessert while another cooks the chicken. Togetherness is what it's all about!

Ingredients:
1 lb chicken breast tenderloins
1 red onion, chopped
1 Tbsp olive oil
½ tsp chili powder
½ tsp cumin
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper
1 lb raw spinach
½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese
Burrito size tortillas, whole wheat, spinach, or jalapeno
½ head of iceberg lettuce
¼ cup grated carrots
1 cup fresh broccoli, chopped
Salad dressing of your choice
1 small can chopped pineapple
2 cups vanilla yogurt

Preparation:
Place the pineapple in the freezer to chill while dinner is cooking.
Toss the salad ingredients in a bowl.
Fry the chicken and onion in the olive oil and seasonings. Remove from the pan.
Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces.
Put the chicken back into the pan with the spinach and sauté until the spinach is wilted.
Place some of the chicken and spinach in a tortilla, top with a sprinkling of cheese, and roll up into a burrito.
Stir the chilled pineapple into the yogurt.
Serve the Spicy Mexican Wraps with the salad.
Have the Pineapple Yogurt for dessert.
