CHICKEN BURRITOS



Chicken Burritos image

Los Angeles: land of sun, fun, and burritos. Southern California's Mexican-influenced cuisine has the potential to be an all-out fat fest (cheese, sour cream) or a healthy mix of carbs (tortillas, beans) and protein (chicken, beans). A chicken burrito with the full-fat works can tip the scales at nearly 600 calories and 31 fat grams. To slim it down, we stuffed it with all-white-meat chicken, less cheese and nonfat sour cream. We also rolled it in a whole-wheat tortilla for extra fiber.

1/2 tsp chili powder
6 whole-wheat tortillas (8 inches each)
3/4 cup cheddar, shredded
6 cups fresh spinach, shredded
1/2 cup nonfat sour cream
