I love white chicken enciladas and these are very good without being as bad for you! They use common ingredients most of which I already had. I will use green chile for jalapenos as it was a little spicy for my husband. Otherwise I loved them (my husb didn't as much as I did therefor 4 stars). I would serve these for company in a relaxed setting.

I?m ?originally from Texas, but now live in Florida. Still gotta have that spice though....love chipotle peppers, habaneros, and jalapenos. This is a picture of myself & my 2 daughters taken in Dec'06. I am working on my graduate degree, & still work as a nurse prn. When I'm not cooking and eating what I cook... I head for the gym to work out. As far as cookbooks, I love the church/ community cookbooks, where someone has dug out old handwritten recipes by granny and shared them with others-those are the best kind. If I had a month off, I'd for sure go hiking, would love to visit Australia and New Zealand.?
