Chicken Cordon Bleu Burrito

Breaded chicken, ham, cheese is the tried and true combo so of course it burrito-izes. This is an easy way to bring elevated flavors to lunch or dinner.

Chicken Cordon Bleu Burrito
Ingredients: (serves 2)

2 tortillas
1 cup of rice, prepared
1 breaded chicken breast
2 slices of ham
2 slices of swiss
arugula or spinach
dijonaise/dijon + mayo

Directions:
Cook the rice and chicken.
Assemble the burrito with the tortillas, rice, greens, dijonaise, ham, cheese, and chicken.

Warm a pan to medium heat and spray with nonstick spray.
Roll up the tortilla folding the sides inward, then the front towards the end keeping the sides tucked tight.
Warm seam side down, and rotate to warm through.
Enjoy!

These are always a good use for leftover rice and just a few other ingredients.

May 2026 Recap

May brings spring in full force. From lacrosse games to the dance recital to reunion weekend at work, and so much questionable weather.

I made some White Wine & Lemoncello Spritzers for a springy drink.

This Sesame Cucumber Salad went viral for a reason. It is quick and flavorful and became the perfect side to some Trader Joe’s Honey Walnut Shrimp.

Chicken, bacon & ranch pull-aparts became dinner but would be fun apps too.

June will bring a much anticipated girls trip and a flurry of work before the fiscal year ends. I have some birthday burger ideas ruminating and a old favorite that deserves a refresh.

The Big Kid: He’s so happy to be outside so much. He is not so happy to have MCAS but survived. Lacrosse is in full swing with just a few more in early June. We switched electrolyte drinks and seem to have found some flavors in Liquid IV he likes.

The Littler Kid: She had lots of parties this month and the dance recital! She did great and was such a trooper to wait an incredibly long time at the dress rehearsal. Her fav take-out is Dave’s Hot Chicken (with no spice, not hot).

Goals for the year:
Year of new footwear – Gah, I missed it…again.
Side dish emphasis  – the sesame cucumber salad was such a fun side!
Soups & salad – we had a sub-salad for a side
More drinks – a white wine spritzer felt springy
What I’m reading – I LOVED Little One, and Next Year in Havana was one I listened to and it was such a joy. I breezed through Favorite Daughter which had just enough train-wreck to keep moving. Lastly, I read Cue the Sun! The Invention of Reality TV which was way too long and detailed but I enjoyed some of it.
