Friday 10/1 "Cuban Wraps with Mashed Potatoes"

Quick Fix with Robin Miller

Ingredients
• 4 to 6 slices turkey bacon, cooked until crisp and crumbled
• 2 large russet potatoes
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup sliced onions
• 4 pre cooked chicken breast halves
• 1 cup prepared salsa
• 1/3 cup prepared ranch dip
• 4 (8-inch) spinach tortillas

Directions
Cut potatoes and boil. Drain and smash combining cheese and bacon crumbles. Use either milk or broth to soften potatoes.
Using two forks, pull chicken apart into shreds. Set aside.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and saute 3 minutes, until soft. Add chicken and salsa and bring to a simmer. Remove from heat and stir in ranch dip.
Arrange tortillas on a flat surface. Top with chicken mixture and roll up. Serve with mashed potatoes.

The verdict: This was delicious! I saved some ranch dip for baby carrots--which my kids loved! I actually bought the chicken already shredded and precooked, which saved a lot of time. The mashed potatoes are admittedly not good for you, but better than a bacon cheeseburger, which is what they tasted like!
