Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In a large skillet on medium low heat, add enchilada sauce and warm.
- 2. Dip a tortilla into sauce and shake off and place in prepared baking dish. Add a heaping amount of shredded cooked chicken and sprinkle with about 1 Tablespoon or so of shredded cheese. Roll and place seamside down in pan. Continue with the other 5 tortillas, using all of the chicken but reserving some cheese for top.
- 3. Pour the remaining sauce over top of enchiladas and sprinkle with remaining cheese. That's it! Bake for appx. 30 minutes until bubbly and hot. Serve with a big heaping spoonful of sour cream and sliced avocado, if desired. Makes 6 very large enchiladas. I eat one; my husband eats 2; some may eat 3. May serve 2, 3, 4 or 6!
- 4. *Note - To make this very easy, you can substitute shredded rotissiere chicken. *2nd Note - Sometimes I add a splash of heavy cream to the sauce to make it a little creamier.

Steps:
- 1. Rape your rotisserie chicken of it's skin and bones. Break up your white and dark meat into bite size pieces in a large bowl.
- 2. Add the soups, and diced tomatoes to your chicken and stir thoroughly.
- 3. Lay out 10-15 corn or flour tortilla on your clean counter top and place an ice cream scoop size of mixture onto each.
- 4. Roll up and place seam side down in sprayed cake pan.
- 5. I make 12-15 of these placing 6 or 7 in each of two smaller rectangular cake pans. You can load of a larger cake pan with all, if you prefer.
- 6. There will be enough leftover mixture to put some on top of each pan of tortillas. If not, you could also cover each with some enchilada sauce. I then sprinkle with shredded cheese using whatever I have, but shredded mexican mixture tastes best!
- 7. Cover with foil and bake in a 350 oven for about 45 minutes. Serve warm with chips, salsa, guacamole and sour cream if you like.
