*Spicy* Chicken Buritos with Homemade Seasoning

*Spicy* Chicken Buritos with Homemade Seasoning

 

Okay so this one was actually a little too spicy for my hubby and I. We both only just managed it with LOTS of cheese/sour cream and drinks to hand! But if you like spicy food- go for it- and if you don't still try it but perhaps with only half of the seasoning and reserve the other half for next time (that's what I am going to do next time I do this dish).

I wanted to try this as I wanted to make my own seasoning rather than using the packet stuff that uses lots of preservatives etc. At least you know what is in this one!

Time Taken?: Only about 15 minutes. It's almost as quick as the packet ones.

2 year old friendly?: We didn't give him any cause it was too spicy, but if you only use half the seasoning it might be 2 year old friendly (he had the tortilla, cheese and some salad though!)

Serves 4-6
