Method

Combine black-eyed peas, bell peppers, onion, dressing, mustard, salt and pepper in a bowl and let marinate for at least 1/2 hour in the fridge. Arrange the 6 tortillas in single layer on a greased cookie sheet. Using a slotted spoon to avoid excess liquid, place black eyed pea mixture on top of tortillas. Evenly distribute chicken on top of the mixture and then sprinkle with mozzarella. Place under a broiler until cheese is golden brown and bubbly. Serve immediately.

 

Notes: You may substitute cooked ground chicken or turkey for the cubed, roasted chicken.
