BBQ Chicken Tacos

I was looking around in my kitchen for something to fix for lunch. Yes, I did plan ahead, but then I didn't feel like eating what I had planned. Or rather...Prissy Pouch didn't feel like eating what I planned. And we all know who/what rules our eating now don't we? Anyway, A while back I had found some corn tortillas that fit into our meal plan and they have been sitting in the pantry ever since. An idea burst into my head (no, it didn't hurt)...bbq chicken tacos! Very fast to prepare and very yummy to eat!

BBQ Chicken Tacos

1 corn tortilla (I use Mission yellow, extra thin, 6 inch)
3 oz canned chicken
2 tablespoons low sugar bbq sauce (I use Kraft Light), divided
shredded lettuce
diced tomato
pinch of shredded cheese

In a small ungreased skillet, heat the tortilla for about 15 seconds on medium heat, flip and heat the other side for about 10 seconds. Set aside.

Using the same small skillet heat the canned chicken on medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon bbq sauce and stir into the chicken. Heat thoroughly.

Place chicken on top of the tortilla, then the lettuce, tomato and cheese. Top with the other tablespoon of bbq sauce and fold the tortilla like a taco shell and enjoy!

Variation: Spread everything around on the tortilla and eat it like a tostada!
