  1. Why fry the tortillas? Why not just pop them into the oven or microwave for a minute or two? That's what I do when I make tacos. Don't like the grease.
     
  2. I haven't made this yet, but plan to soon. For those on WW this comes out at 10 Pts. on my WW calculator, so be aware of what you add to the rest of the meal. Maybe a nice tossed salad.
     
  3. My family and I really enjoyed these enchiladas. My brother and I found it to be a two-man job. We created an assembly line where he was in charge of frying the tortillas and dipping them in the half & half and I was in charge of assembling and rolling them. It was nice teamwork! We needed a little more than 1/4 cup of oil to get all the tortillas fried. We shredded our chicken and added a little garlic powder to the half & half as well. We were in shock that this is a WW recipe. I can guarantee we'll be making this again. Thank you for posting!
     
  4. I quite agree
     
  5. Good flavor but too mushy (cream did not set up after 30 min in oven). Kids did not like it at all.

Tweaks

  1. I used flour Torts to reduce the fat, no need to fry.. and skim milk in place 1/2 n 1/2 and goat cheese. Just in case anyone would like to reduce the points. It was great!
     
  2. Excellent WW recipe! I cut this down to 3 enchiladas. I used diced jalapenos instead of the chilies and used flour tortillas. Topped it with pepper jack cheese. I did serve it with some of the green salsa. Delicious! Thanks for posting. :)
