Cream Cheese Chicken Enchiladas:

submitted by: Liz Harrison

2 boneless/skinless chicken breasts (cooked and shredded)

1 pkg. cream cheese (I use the 1/3 less fat)

1 jar salsa

1 can mild green enchilada sauce

monterey or colby jack cheese

cilantro & lime for garnishing

*Once your chicken is cooked and shredded, add the room temp. cream cheese and salsa to a large bowl and mix together. Assemble as usual - tortilla, chicken mixture, cheese, and roll up. Once all enchiladas are made, pour the green enchilada sauce over top and finish with cheese. Bake at 350 degrees uncovered for 30 minutes. (The honey lime cream enchilada sauce would be yummy on these as well.)

*These are very kid friendly, so if you want to spice it up a bit add a little chili powder and cumin to chicken.
