These were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

I'm not a huge fan of Mexican food, but I thought these were pretty good. The flavors were well-balanced and the chicken was cooked perfectly.

These were a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also added some black beans and corn to the filling, and they turned out really well.

I love the idea of these roll-ups, but I found them to be a bit dry. I think next time I'll add some sour cream or guacamole to them.

These were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best Mexican roll-ups he's ever had.

These roll-ups were delicious and easy to make. I used rotisserie chicken to save time, and it worked perfectly. I also added a bit of extra salsa verde to give them a little more kick.

I made these for my family and they were a hit! Everyone loved them. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the salsa verde was the perfect finishing touch.
