GREEN CHILI CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
This recipe is something I just threw together. So far I haven't seen any recipes that have "cream cheese" in their filler and it adds such a creamy texture. You can make it as mild or spicy as you like by ajusting the spice or add some jalapeno. My kids won't eat anything spicy.

Steps:
- Turn on oven to lowest setting.
- Wrap tortilla shells in foil, place in oven to soften (not too long or they will be very brittle).
- Mix together green chili, red bell pepper, cream cheese, sour cream, salt, pepper and cayanee pepper until smooth.
- Add shredded chicken and coat.
- In a baking dish, coat the bottom with some of the enchilada sauce (just enough to coat).
- Take out the flour shells spoon a tablespoon of enchilada sauce inside then fill with the chicken mixture (about 2 Tbs or whatever fulliness you like) and roll.
- Place in the pan and continue until the mixture is gone.
- Top with remaining enchilada sauce then pepper jack cheese and cheddar.
- Cover dish with foil and bake at 350 for 60 min (or until cheese& sauce is bubbling).
- This dish can be easily made ahead of time; I usually make this in the morning, so I'll I have to do is bake an hour before my hubby gets home from work.
- It's also a great dish to make when you've had roasted chicken the night before and want to use the leftovers.
