for the Anasazi ruins at Mesa Verde

1 1/4 lbs diced chicken breasts
1/2 cup diced tomato

2 1/2 cups Rosarita enchilada sauce or similar brand
1/1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup plain yogurt for garnish
PREPARATION:
Place diced chicken breast in a half-gallon pot. Add tomato,
garlic, onion, chiles,
cumin, and the bouillon, stirring constantly
on low heat until chicken is cooked,
about 20 minutes.
Add cream cheese, sour cream, and
pepperjack cheese stirring
constantly until the pepperjack has melted.
Roll 6 tablespoons (5/8 cup) of
the filling into each of 8 corn tortillas
and place in a 9 x 13-inch casserole
dish; smother them with the
enchilada sauce (you may have some left over)
and top with
shredded Monterey Jack cheese.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 10
