These Baked Chicken Spinach Flautas from Healthy-Delicious are really good! I made some without the spinach for the kids and they were good too. I used two jalapenos and shredded Monterrey Jack and Pepper Jack cheese when making mine. I have this other Baked Chicken Flautas here on my blog, but this spinach recipe is much easier and less work to make. Flautas have always been a favorite of mine!
