Moo Shu is a Chinese dish that consists of stir-fried veggies and meat (chicken, pork, beef or even tofu) wrapped in thin Chinese-style crepes with some hoisin sauce. In this quick recipe we will be using flour tortillas instead of the Chinese crepes, and some leftover chicken (if you have no leftovers use a roasted chicken from the store).
Some other ingredients that you can put inside these wraps are mushrooms, bell peppers, green onions, snow peas, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, and scrambled eggs.

I think it’s actually better than many of the full-fat versions, because the lower fat content of the cheese keeps it from separating and getting greasy. You can experiment with different types of cheese if you want, just be patient while making the roux, as it’s a little hard to make a good cream sauce when you have so little fat.

These biscuits are easy to make and delicious. Make sure not to knead the dough for a long time, as this will make the biscuits tough instead of light and fluffy. You can make these ahead and refrigerate or freeze them.
