I love meals that I can make into two meals. I made this chicken for supper and served it with rice and a vegetable. Then I was able use the left over chicken for a wrap. I will admit I love wraps. They are in their own convenient to go edible wrapper. Also, the best part is saving some money on groceries especially on meals that we like.
