For years, Husband and I had a Saturday night ritual. We’d go to the 5:15 service at church, sit in our “usual” spot, then head to Tejas, our then-favorite restaurant, for dinner.

Without exception, I always ordered the “Grilled Chicken-Wild Rice Burrito with Mango-Habanero Sauce.”
Sadly, Tejas closed a few years back. Talk about throwing us for a loop!

It’s an adaptation of a recipe that a caterer traded with me after a party years ago. It’s great because it’s super easy to throw together the day before, it freezes well (before it’s baked) and you can lighten it up a little if you like.
I'm glad you stopped by ... pull up a stool, grab your favorite beverage, and let's make something delicious!
