CHICKEN ENCHILADAS FOR FOUR

Chicken Enchiladas for Four image

These chicken enchiladas put a little zip into any menu. The rolled tortillas are filled with a hearty mixture of cheese, chicken and green chiles and then topped with a creamy sauce and more cheese. I sometimes use leftover turkey instead of chicken. -Karen Bourne, Magrath, Alberta
