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!

First off, you only have to take one easy to chew tablet and is not chalky.  Pass me another Doritos Chicken Egg Roll!
