Instructions
Heat the olive oil in pan over medium heat. Add the bell pepper and onion and cook until tender.
Cook corn and spinach according to package directions.
Add the chicken, beans, corn, spinach, and spices. Stir and cook for approximately 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in cheese.
Warm tortillas in the microwave for 30 seconds so they are easier to fold.
In a large fry pan, heat the vegetable oil.
Fill the tortillas with the mixture and roll them tightly. If using a deep fryer, secure with toothpicks.
Once oil is hot, fry the rolls until golden brown.
Let cool and then slice at a diagonal for serving. Serve with ranch dressing.
