List of Ingredients



• 1-1/2 cups sour cream
  
• 2 cloves garlic, pressed
  
• 1-1/2 tsp chili powder
  
• 1/3 cup fresh chopped cilantro
  
• 1 tsp salt
  
• 1 tsp ground cumin
  
• 1 large (8-oz.) can diced green chiles
  
• 1-1/2 cups grated Swiss cheese
  
• 1 bunch green onions, chopped (including green tops)
  
• 2 cups cooked chicken or turkey
  
• 10 flour tortillas
  
• 1 cup grated Cheddar cheese
  






Instructions



1. Combine the sour cream, garlic, chili powder, cilantro, salt, cumin, chiles, Swiss cheese and onions. Chop the chicken meat into 1/2-inch pieces and add to the other ingredients. Moosh everything around with a wooden spoon.
   
   
2. Spoon 1/2 cup of this muck down the center of each tortilla. Roll up and place seam-side down in oven dish. Cover with foil and bake 20 minutes in a 375-degree (F) oven.
   
   
3. Remove dish from oven. Scatter the Cheddar cheese over the tortillas. Return to oven and bake a further 3 or 4 minutes, uncovered, until cheese has melted.
   
   This recipe is fine as is. But if you want to embellish it a bit, you can pass around bowls of shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, guacamole and red salsa that your guests can use to further jazz up their tacos.
