Keto Chicken Flautas
I have been FIENDING for some flautas for the past few days. I looked up a few recipes just to get some ideas and used what I had. These things are SO GOOD. Also let me warn you that the measurements are rough because I was so hungry that I was ravenously throwing ingredients together. I cook a lot, so I have a good idea of measurements and weights, but I highly advise you to weigh and measure your food whenever you do keto, just to be sure.

Ingredients:
3oz chicken breast – I love the seasoning, so I used rotisserie chicken from Costco.
5 Mission carb smart tortillas – Now I used 4 and packed mine kinda tight, but if you use 5, it’s fewer carbs per seving. Your choice. I was a hungry hungry hippo tonight, so I unapologetically packed those babies.
1/2 cup cheese – I used Tillamook Pepper Jack. It melts great and tastes better.
1/4 cup cream cheese – This makes the flautas creamier and gives a nice taste, but you can opt out to reduce the carbs.
1/4 cup salsa – I used the Costco Del Real Salsa De Molcajete Roja on in the inside, verde on the outside.
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
salt or no salt, the salsa is salty.
2 tbsp sour cream
Salsa – I used the Costco Del Real Salsa De Molcajete Verde.
Shred chicken breast and grate cheese.
