3 cups shredded Jack cheese
6 tablespoons green onion, chopped
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/4 cup flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup sour cream

Directions:
Fill each tortilla with 1/2 cup cheese and 1 tablespoon green onion (microwaving tortillas a few seconds makes them easier to roll without cracking). Roll each individually and place in an 8-inch square shallow baking dish. Melt butter in a saucepan, add flour stirring constantly. Add chicken broth and stir to make a thick sauce. Remove from the heat and stir in sour cream and chilies, stir until smooth. Pour over tortillas. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
