Family Food Faves

If you are craving a creamy, cheesy, somewhat spicy comfort dish, give this a try. I serve it up with cheesy-topped refried beans and a tossed green salad. It's not too spicy - my boys love them!










Creamy Chicken Enchiladas
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon margarine
1 onion, chopped
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 cups chopped cooked chicken breast
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers, drained
8 (8 inch) flour tortillas (I only use 5-6)
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. In a small bowl mix the soup and sour cream; set aside.
3. Melt margarine in a medium saucepan over medium high heat. Add onion and chili powder, and saute until tender. Stir in the chicken, chile peppers, and 2 tablespoons of the soup mixture. Cook and stir until heated through.
4. Spread 1/2 cup of the soup mixture in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
5. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll up tortillas, and place, seam-side-down, in the baking dish.
6. Spoon remaining soup mixture on top, and sprinkle with cheese. Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until bubbly and lightly browned.

I'll have to give this a try (for the chicken eaters in our house!) I love making enchiladas but the sauce is always too spicy for Ellie . . .this looks like a great one to try!
