• Spread evenly onto the tortillas.
• Next add the black beans, chicken, onions tomatoes and cheese in a thin layer over each tortilla - don't add too much of the toppings or else they will be hard to roll up.
• Roll tightly in cling wrap and refrigerate for 8 hrs or overnight.
• Slice into 1 inch slices and serve.
• Note - it is easier to slice if you place them in the freezer for 1/2 hr or so first.
• ** I only use about 1/2 - 3/4 of the can of beans, it all depends on how much you like them **.
• ** I only use about 1/2 the package of taco seasoning as well as I find a full packet to be a little too salty **.
