10. Next warm the tortillas in the microwave for about 30 seconds so they are easier to roll.
11. Lay out the tortillas on your work surface, next to your prepared baking dish.

13. Next take about 1/4 cup of the chicken and pumpkin cream mixture and place it on top of the beans.
14. Sprinkle 1-2 tablespoons of colby jack cheese in each tortilla.
15. Roll up each tortilla and place it seam side down in the baking pan.
