  1. This is our family's new favorite chicken dish. I saute the onions with 1 can of Costco's cooked canned chicken (shredded w/a fork) to save on time and substitute half sour cream, half cream cheese. Our family loves onions so we add green onions to the top and my 3 yr old loves it and always asks for more! It always makes 9 good sized enchiladas for me, using the 10inch flour tortillas. I also cover them with enchilada sauce (either green or red), that way I can use the entire creamy mixture as the filling.
     
  2. Yummy & easy... I've been looking for an enchilada recipe that was easy like this, where I didn't have to mess with flour and butter and all that schtuff... ;) I left out the onion in this but otherwise followed exactly {using low-fat ingredients}. Next time, I might add some cilantro for a little fresh flavor --- but this is a keeper for sure!
     
  3. I made this for my family the other night. We all liked it...which is hard to accomplish with my 2 kids who are PICKY. The only change I would make is to add something that has a little "spice". Not sure what that would be tho. Maybe some Franks Buffalo Wing Sauce...not much tho.<br/>Thanks for the recipe. I will make this again for sure.
     
  4. I enjoyed this very much. Though I did change a few things. I added campbell's fiesta nacho soup and since I was out of tortillas we ate this with cool ranch doritos. It was great!
     
  5. This was wonderful and so easy to make. Definitely a keeper! Thanks for posting!

  1. YU-UM!! I substituted Montery Jack for the Mozzarella and corn tortillas for the flour. I also had to use cream of mushroom since I was out of cream of chicken. My entire family loved it - this recipe is definitely a keeper!
     
  2. Very easy and very filling. Substituted cheddar cheese/monterey jack cheese blend for the cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. I was out of onions so I just omitted it with no loss of flavor. Since I don't like real spicy food, I used mild Rotel tomatoes and there was still plenty of kick. I doubled the sauce amount (and probably used more than 2 cups chicken though I'm not sure since I didn't measure it) and made 8 enchiladas, 6 in a row across the bottom and 2 across the top and had lots of sauce to pour over the top, which is the way we like it. Next time I may try using corn tortillas instead of the flour. A big hit at my house!
