Quick and Easy Chicken Burritos

So we really love these. They are so yummy and QUICK!

2 c. cooked and shredded chicken (I like to use a rotisserie chicken or sear with seasonings 2 chicken breasts on the stove top for about 10 min and slice them into thin strips)
1/2 c. Mexican cheese blend (colby jack works well too)
1 avocado, diced
2 Tbsp cilantro, chopped (can do without but the flavor is WAY different)
4 big tortillas

Mix the shredded chicken, cheese, cilantro, and avocado in a small bowl. Use the mixture to make 4 burritos (you know, put the filling in the tortilla and roll it up tucking the ends in so it doesn't fall out). We then put two at a time in our Panini press and cook them till the light turns on. A George Forman Grill or something like that would work too. If not, put a bit of oil in a heated skillet cook for about 2 min on medium-high heat then flip and cook for the same time on the other side or until the burritos are golden in color. Serve warm.

Note: Parker likes to dip his in sour cream but they are delish just as they are. Also the recipe says that they can be frozen cooked or uncooked for up to 3 months - I've never tried it and actually forgot that bit until just now so let me know if anyone tries it!
