This recipe is an
example of how when I find a recipe that inspires me but how I must adapt the recipe when I do
not have all the ingredients or the ability to follow the processes like
making handmade rolls.
I laughed when I made this recipe because it is like making a sandwich except you roll up the contents in bread.
I agonized over using waxed paper or aluminum to cover the microwave tray to prevent the items from sticking. Isn’t wax paper or aluminum unfriendly to the environment?
During my recent dive into DIY crafts, I was shocked at the amount of waste material one person can accumulate.
I choose aluminum because it can be reused.
Note: this recipe has a few GERD-friendly touches. I try to avoid onions, so when a recipe calls for onions, I use onion flakes but the BBQ sauce and cheeses are not GERD-friendly.

Process:
On a cutting board, lay 1 slice of bread.
Trim off crusts.
Use a rolling pin or a tall round glass to roll out the bread slice to flatten it. Roll until you have fully flattened and extended the slice.
In a bowl, add chicken, onion flakes, sauce, cheeses, salt and pepper.
Stir well to mix ingredients.
Add 1 TBspn of the chicken mixture at one end of the flattened slice.
Take that end and roll the mixture and bread forward until you reach the end of the slice.
Lay the roll with the closed side down on a toaster oven tray.
Follow the above steps again for additional BBQ Chicken Rollups.
When serving, offer Cilantro dressing as a topping.
