  4. -Drain juice off corn and add to bowl.
  5. -Drain some juice off rotel and add to bowl (don't want the chicken mixture to be to runny).
  6. -Add to the chicken mixture the salsa, chili powder, garlic salt and crushed red pepper. Mix well and taste to see if you'd like to add any more spices.
  7. CHEESE TIME!
  8. -Place block of cheese in microwave safe bowl with the 1/4 cup of milk.
  9. -Heat at 45-60 second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted. Set aside.
  10. CONSTRUCTING YOUR BURRITOS.
  11. -Preheat oven to 350.
  12. -Warm up the bag of tortillas for about 20 seconds in the microwave to make them easy to work with.
  13. -Spoon about 3/4 cup of the chicken mixture into the center of tortilla.
  14. -Fold in the left and right flaps then roll up from the bottom. Place seam side down in a 9x13 dish.
  15. -Depending on how big you make your burritos, it may take two pans to fit all of them.
