Doritos Chicken Egg Rolls are a fun appetizer inspired by everyone’s favorite Mexican chicken casserole. This post is sponsored by PEPCID®COMPLETE®.
Doritos Chicken is one of my kids’ favorite meals. As I was leaving the grocery store with a bag of Doritos the other day, the idea popped in my head to make Doritos Chicken into an egg roll. I love those kinds of ideas!
My recipes tend to be rich and while delicious can be known to cause a bit of a belly ache or heartburn, shocking right? I was pretty happy to have received a bottle of PEPCID®COMPLETE® after eating more than a couple of these Doritos Chicken Egg Rolls. A quote from the boys, “Mama those sure were good but they gave me the heartburn!” I’m not making that up either! I always laugh when they call it “the heartburn”.
PEPCID®COMPLETE® is my pick for combating the occasional heartburn. First off, you only have to take one easy to chew tablet and is not chalky. Pass me another Doritos Chicken Egg Roll!
Doritos Chicken is my version of Mexican Chicken Casserole, and I simplified it to work as an egg roll filling. Then I DEEP FRIED IT! I served them up with a little ranch dressing for dipping. They were over the top delicious.
These Doritos Chicken Egg Rolls are an amazing appetizer or serve them as an afternoon snack or perfect for tailgating and watching your favorite sports team!
Just make sure you have your PEPCID®COMPLETE® ready when the heartburn hits for instant relief that works all day!
