• In a large bowl combine shredded chicken, spinach, and 1/2 cup green onions; set aside. For sauce, in a medium bowl stir together sour cream, yogurt, flour, salt, and cumin. Stir in milk and chile peppers. Divide sauce in half.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. For filling, combine chicken-spinach mixture and one portion of the sauce; divide mixture into 12 portions. Place one portion of the filling near one edge of a tortilla; roll up tortilla. Place filled tortilla, seam side down, in an ungreased 3-quart rectangular baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and the remaining filling.
• Spoon the remaining sauce over tortilla rolls. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake, uncovered, about 40 minutes or until heated through and cheese is lightly browned. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. If desired, garnish with cilantro and serve with salsa and/or additional green onions.
