GREEN CHICKEN AND CHEESE ENCHILADAS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, onion, and cumin and cook until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add the drained spinach and half of the salsa and cook until warmed through. Remove from the heat and stir in the chicken. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Spread 1/2 of the remaining salsa in the bottom of a 10-inch square baking dish or oven-proof skillet. Lay 1 tortilla on the salsa and spread 1/2 the filling over it. Top with another tortilla and spread the remaining filling over it, and top with the last tortilla. Spread the remaining salsa over the tortilla and scatter the cheese over the top.
- Bake for 20 minutes, or until heated through and cheese has melted. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Top with green onions, if desired, and cilantro. Top each serving with no more than 1 tablespoon light sour cream, if desired, and serve.

CREAM CHEESE GREEN CHICKEN ENCHILADA'S
THE BEST chicken enchiladas!! So fast and easy! My sister gave me this recipe years ago and it has been a staple in out home ever since. I often make this for potlucks and it ALWAYS gets RAVE reviews. I get asked for the recipe every time! If you like your food spicy you can use hot chilies and hot green enchilada sauce. I have toddlers, so I have to make mine mild, but it's great spicy too. It is definately rich, but oh so worth it!

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.
