I was in a hurry one day and I wanted to make enchiladas for unexpected company for dinner. I found this one and tried it. I usually make my own recipe for chicken enchiladas and they are always a hit. But, this is so much easier and tastes great!! I made them twice but the second time, I used canned white meat chicken. My guests raved over them and asked for the recipe. We love them and will definitely make them again. I did use Mexican blend grated cheese in place of the Monterey but it worked out great. Thanks so much so sharing this recipe. We love it!!! I hope everyone will try it. I do prefer the chicken with it, however.

I prepared this with some alterations. I used leftover beef roast and first sauteed my onions in a bit of olive oil, added the roast beef (and some broth) to the pan along with 1 small can of green chiles, cumin, ancho chile powder, and garlic. I simmered this until most of the liquid had evaporated and the flavors had melded. I spread this inside corn tortillas that had been warmed in the microwave, then topped with a bit of the cheese before rolling. I combined more green chiles with sour cream to top the enchiladas and sprinkled the top of the casserole with cheese before baking. They were delicious. Hubby stated that this could be a standard in our house for leftover roast beef.
