Chicken & Pepper Burritos image

I don't remember where this one came from. I do know I've changed it over the years. They freeze well when wrapped in freezer paper. After they thaw I like to fry them, making Chimichangas.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my burritos were really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the salt.

I'm not a fan of bell peppers, so I substituted zucchini in this recipe. The burritos were still delicious!

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my burritos fell apart when I tried to roll them up.

These burritos are a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have a few cups of cooked chicken in the freezer, so I can whip up a batch of these burritos in no time.

I tried making these burritos in a slow cooker, and they turned out great! I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning, and dinner was ready when I got home from work.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but these burritos were surprisingly mild. The avocado sauce really helped to balance out the heat.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my burritos turned out really soggy. I think I might have added too much liquid.

Meh. I thought these burritos were just okay. The chicken was a bit dry, and the overall flavor was bland. I wouldn't make these again.
