Enchiladas! Because anything covered in cheese is amazing.

Sooooo I have no rights to this recipe as I got it from a dear family friend, but I have to say these are the best enchiladas EVER and got me to eat again while I was on an emo-induced hunger strike so clearly they must be phenominal.


Loooook at the cheese!


The best part about this recipe? It used a cooked chicken and canned sauce! Easy Peasy. There is no way you can mess this one up. And it's only 350 calories per enchilada :)


Without further ado, the recipe:



2 Packages Flour shells from Safeway and they say “Hand Made” on the package (they come 8 to a package). In a pinch you can sub Guerrero fajita size flour ones that come 20 to a pack.
2 Large Cans “Green Enchilada” sauce
1  Whole Roasted Chicken from Safeway
3 Bags Lucerne 4-cheese Mexican blend
2 small cans sliced black olives

Cut chicken off of bone and dice into smaller pieces.
In microwave, heat tortillas for about 12 seconds (enough to allow them to fold easily)
Pour a little bit of Green Enchilada sauce in a pie plate or regular plate and coat the tortilla
After coating tortilla place in chicken, olives and cheese and then roll it up and place it into a backing dish
Repeat the above until you run out of ingredients, usually about 15-16 enchiladas.
Now take the remainder of the Green Enchilada sauce in the can and pour it over the enchiladas. I usually use two rectangle baking dishes and thus one can per dish.
Now spread a vast amount of the cheese (about ¼ to ½” thick worth) over all of the enchiladas.
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and bake for 30 minutes.

DELICIOSO! :)
