Place about 1/2 cup chicken mixture on half of each tortilla. Sprinkle cheese evenly over turkey mixture on tortillas; fold tortillas in half. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat until hot. Add 2 filled tortillas; cook 30 seconds on each side or until lightly browned. Set aside, and keep warm.

NOTES : I make this recipe using the George Foreman grill. I simply grill the folded tortillas on the grill until the cheese is melted and they are lightly browned.
