3 cloves garlic, chopped

3 Chicken Breast, shredded (or 2c)
4 oz Low fat cream cheese, softened
Spices (I use chili powder, cayenne pepper, cumin)
1 cup Swanson Chicken Broth 99% Fat Free
8 Corn Tortillas (approx 6" dia)
1/4 cup Feta Cheese, crumbled

Preheat oven to 425°.
Combine first 4 ingredients in a blender; process until smooth. Blend cream cheese and spices in a bowl, stir in chicken. Stir in 1/2 cup salsa mixture. Reserve remaining salsa.
In a medium skillet, bring broth to a simmer. Working with one tortilla at a time, add tortilla to pan; cook 20 seconds, holding under broth with tongs. Remove tortilla; drain on paper towels. Spoon about 1/4 cup chicken mixture down center of tortilla; roll up. Place tortilla, seam-side down, in a baking dish coated with cooking spray. Repeat with remaining tortillas and mixture.
