Steps:
- Mix together the mayonnaise, cucumber, 1 tablespoon of honey, 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, and black pepper in a bowl until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet on medium-high heat, and cook and stir the chicken breast strips until they are beginning to turn golden and are no longer pink in the middle, about 8 minutes. Stir in the salsa, 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have blended, about 5 minutes.
- Stack the tortillas, 4 at a time, in a microwave oven and heat until warm and pliable, 20 to 30 seconds per batch.
- Spread each tortilla with 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise-cucumber mixture, top with a layer of baby spinach leaves, and arrange about 1/2 cup of chicken mixture on the spinach leaves.
- Fold the bottom of each tortilla up about 2 inches, and start rolling the burrito from the right side. When the burrito is half-rolled, fold the top of the tortilla down, enclosing the filling, and continue rolling to make a tight, compact cylinder.

BAKED FRUITY CHICKEN
This chicken is absolutely delicious and moist. Its' slightly sweet flavor & sauce keeps everyone asking for more. I always serve it over a bed of rice with plenty of steamed vegetables. I often substitute canned peaches for the fruit cocktail. If you desire more sauce, simply use all of the syrup from the canned fruit. It turns out much tastier if made with chicken pieces with the skin left on.

Steps:
- Heat a dry griddle pan over a medium-high heat, and fry the aubergine rounds for 2 mins on each side until lightly coloured and char lines appear (you may need to do this in batches). Transfer to a bowl with the onions, then toss with the olive oil and vinegar.
- Combine the yogurt, tahini and garlic in a bowl with 1 tbsp water to loosen. Mix the cumin, coriander, paprika and some salt and pepper in a small bowl. Put the chicken on a board, cover with baking parchment and bash with a rolling pin to an even 1½cm thickness. Rub all over with the spice mix, leave for 10 mins, then fry in the oil for 12 mins, flipping after 8 mins. Transfer to a board, rest briefly, then slice.
- Warm the wraps in a dry frying pan, then fill with the tomatoes, aubergine and onion mix, avocado, chicken and tahini dressing.

CHERRY-CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS
I came up with this amazing recipe when I had a load of cherries on hand. My family polished them off fast, and asked for more. Luckily I had enough fruit to make them again the next day! -Melissa Barlow, Fruit Heights, Utah
