    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/4 tsp. pepper

    flour tortillas
    mild salsa sauce

    Combine first 8 ingredients in large bowl and mix well.
    Heat filling over stove or microwave.
    Spoon 1/4 cup into center of flour tortilla.
    Fold bottom over filling; fold in sides, then fold down on top to enclose filling completely.
