EASY CHEESY CHICKEN TACOS



Easy Cheesy Chicken Tacos image

This is a favorite of my family. Also a favorite of mine because it is very quick to put together. I modified it from a recipe found in a Land O Lakes recipe brochure. I use turkey instead of chicken because it is available pre-packaged at my local grocery store.
