Chicken Burrito Mix


Chicken Burrito Mix
7-8 lbs chicken-  cook then shred it.
2 3/4 C. chicken broth
1 1/2 C. uncooked rice
3 C shredded cheddar cheese
1/3 C sliced green onions
1 onion, diced
1/4 tsp garlic powder
2 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp chilli powder
1 16 oz jar salsa
1 10 oz can enchilada sauce
Optional- 1/2 C. sliced black olives
Optional- 1 C chopped cilantro
Optional- 1 4 oz can diced green chiles
Cook the chicken, then shred it.  I like to use the broth from cooking it to make the rice.  Saute onions, butter and spices.      Once the chicken, rice, and sautéed onions are ready, let them cool a little and then mix it all up in a large bowl.  Then, I like to divide it into meal-sized portions, depending on how much you think you will need per meal.  (We use about 1 to 1 1/2 lb) and then freeze them in freezer bags.  Then, I have at least 7 meals ready to defrost.  We use this mix to make Super nachos/ chicken taco salad, or chicken enchiladas.  
For chicken enchiladas:  Mix 1 can cream of chicken, 1 C sour cream and 1 pkg enchilada seasoning, 1/2 C milk or water and add half of this to one package of the mix.  Put mix into soft tortillas and cover with remaining sauce and cheese.
