Recipe for Chicken Enchiladas

This recipe for chicken enchiladas can be changed slightly by substituting white or brown rice for the cooked white beans. You can also leave the beans out if you'd like. This is a great recipe for freezing extra. It also can be prepared the night before or morning and left in the fridge until cooking time.




4 Cups shredded cooked chicken
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 Cup salsa
1 cup shredded cheese
1 cup cooked white beans
salt and pepper
1 can of cream of chicken soup

Add 1/4 cup of chicken, or as much as desired, to a tortilla.

Turkey Enchilada Casserole

by Stanley Fisher
(Guthrie, MN)

 

5 Skinless boneless turkey
1 large can of green enchilada sauce
4 cups of shredded cheese (we use Colby jack)
1/2 cup milk
1 bag of flour or corn tortilla (we use flour)

Heat green sauce on low & add 1/2 cup milk stir until blended.
Ladle sauce into 9x12 pan about 1/2 inch thick. Start first layer of tortillas. Cook turkey in microwave until almost done, slightly pink in the middle (if using leftover turkey from holidays just shred). Shred one layer of turkey over tortillas. Add one layer of cheese over turkey. Ladle more sauce over cheese (about three ladles). Repeat this process two times. MAKE SURE TO SAVE ABOUT 1 CUP OF CHEESE FOR TOP. End with layer of tortillas. Add last cup of cheese and top with left over sauce.

You may add olives to top and/or green chilies to sauce.

Bake @ 350 until cheese is completely melted
