While visiting my mom we found this recipe in a magazine. We tweaked on it a little bit, and instead of shredding the chicken, we just cubed it and rolled it up in the tortilla with everything else. It was delicious! My brother LOVED this! He couldn't get enough of it.

This is a really good recipe from my Taste of Home collection. The recipe states to blend filling ingredients in a food processor, but I sometimes just mix the filling ingredients together to retain the different textures. Either way, it is delicious.

  • Don't overfill the tortillas: If you overfill the tortillas, they will be difficult to roll and may break.
  • Roll the tortillas tightly: Tightly rolled tortillas will hold their shape better and be easier to cut.
  • Chill the tortillas before slicing: Chilling the tortillas before slicing will help them hold their shape and make them easier to cut.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the tortillas: A sharp knife will give you clean, even slices.
  • Serve the tortillas with your favorite toppings: Southwest roll-ups can be served with a variety of toppings, such as salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and cheese.
