Instant Pot Chicken Taco Bake
One night when I was planning on making tacos for the kids, I discovered that I was out of taco shells. I had already made the filling and I didn't have time to run out to the store so I took some tortillas and made this bake instead. It turned out to be a big hit with them. It has a wet burrito feel without all the effort of having to make them or the sogginess. It is sort of like a lasagna without all the pasta.
One of the keys is to use sprouted tortillas. They have a texture that keeps things from getting soggy. Trader Joe's usually has them.
