Chicken Enchiladas

Submitted by Susie in Texas

"We had this at a relatives child's birthday party, the kids devoured it, and I couldn't wait to get the recipe from her since we've never had chicken enchilada's with spinach and mozeralla in it. What's nice is it bakes to a lasagne like texture and can be cut into square pieces for serving, you'd never know the shells were in it."

I am puzzled by the nutmeg. NO ONE liked it. It was easy enough to make and the spinach was a great idea.....just did not need the egg nog touch. Would not use this recipe again.

I made this using the leftover chicken I had from making broth via the online cooking school Zaar had a few weeks ago. These were delicious, very easy to assemble, and a big hit with my picky family. I plan to make them again this time using leftover turkey from Thanksgiving. Thanks for a great recipe that will surely be a keeper in our house!
