I thought I would throw a recipe up here for a change. These are basically southwest eggrolls in burrito form. Delicious.
Ingredients
- 10 chicken tenderloins (or 2-3 chicken breasts)
- 4 tablespoons minced red bell peppers
- 1 small onion
- 1-2 cloves garlic
- 2/3 cup frozen corn
- 1 can black bean, rinsed and drained
- 4 tablespoons spinach (I used spinach in half the batches)
- 2 tablespoons diced canned jalapeno peppers (I’ve used up to 4)
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cayenne pepper (or a dash or to of the powdered stuff)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 9 flour tortillas
Directions
Cook the chicken in olive oil in a pan. Once cooked shred the chicken. Add everything else (except the cheese) to the pan and cook until it’s all cooked and warm. Remove and add cheese mixing until incorporated. Add to the tortillas, roll up and eat or freeze. I recommend nuking the tortillas so they fold easier and don’t rip. When reheating the frozen burritos I usually microwave for 3 minutes.

I have always wondered why Sonic advertises in Michigan where about three locations exist. Is this just poorly spend advertising dollars? Are they communicating to me that they are coming soon? Or do they just enjoy torturing people who are stuck with McDonalds, Burger King, and Wendy’s? I decided to find out.
Well, Sonic buys time on cable channels just like any other advertiser. The problem is that since there are usually only two “feeds” of a cable channel (one with programming synchronized to Eastern time and one with programming on Pacific time), many areas receive commercials for products that they cannot purchase. Also, since Sonic has franchises in Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, you may be receiving the commercials as inducements to vacation in those states.
So in summary, Sonic is not wasting money on advertising, could be coming soon but nothing is confirmed, and they do not enjoy teasing you with their delicious looking food.
Consider yourself educated.
