Chicken and cheese taquitos

1 bar of cream cheese
1/2 C green enchilada sauce
2 tbsp lime juice (I used lemon juice and it worked just as well)
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
2 tsp chili powder

1 tsp onion powder
salt and pepper
2 cloves minced garlic
1/3 C. chopped cilantro
4 green onions, sliced ( I used a regular onion and it was the same)
3 C shredded cooked chicken ( I used a store bought rotiserrie chicken and shredded it. it was faster)
2 C shredded cheese ( I used just 1 cup. if you want it cheesier you can use more)
1 large pkg. flour tortillas

In a large bowl mash together the cream cheese, enchilada sauce, lime juice, spices, garlic and green onions.
mix together and add salt and pepper.
Add the cheese, cilantro and the shredded chicken.
warm up the tortillas so that they are pliable. put a few tablespoons of the filling in the tortilla and roll up.
Line a baking sheet with tin foil, spray with cooking spray.
place the taquitos seam side down and spray the top of the tortillas with cooking spray.
Bake in a preheated oven at 400 degrees for about 10 min. or until the tortillas are brown and crispy.

** these were SO yummy! Enjoy!
