A lovely friend once gave to me,
A most delightful recipe.
Each time I use it I feel I spend,
A precious moment with that friend.

I, too, have a favorite recipe,
Often enjoyed by my family.
May I share my recipe with you,.
Not an original, but tried and true

And with this offering I send,
The warmest greeting from a friend.

1 8oz can Mushrooms
1 ½ C. chicken, cooked and shredded
2/3 C. minced Onion

Saute’ mushrooms in first 4 ingredients for about 10 minutes. Add cooked chicken, onion, and cilantro. Cool 10 minutes and add cheese. Season with salt and pepper and fill 8 tortillas with mixture. Place remaining 8 tortillas on top of the mixture. Brush top tortillas with butter or oil to prevent scorching. Broil 3 minutes, then cut into wedges and serve.

These would go perfect with Taco Soup or even plain old tomato soup.
