Ingredients

  • 5 burrito size flour tortillas
  • 2 ½ cups shredded chicken

  • 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)

  4. Arrange the filled tortillas snugly in a casserole dish, seam side down.
  5. Pour the warm queso sauce evenly over the top of the rolls.
  6. Bake at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes, until the enchiladas are hot and bubbly throughout.
