Easiest Enchiladas Ever!

I love being in the kitchen. From cooking to baking and then eating... I just love food! Being single it makes it hard to cook everyday because recipes usually make way too much and there is always leftovers... and I am not a fan of leftovers. So I don't cook as much as I would like to. Anyways... On Monday I was driving home from work and thought, I have a taste for my delicious enchiladas. I thought I would post the recipe for you all. 

 Ingredients:
2  cans of chicken
8 oz cream cheese
*cumin
*oregano
1/2 onion chopped
10-12 tortillas
1 bag of cheese
1 can of enchilada sauce (green or red)

*sprinkle in for taste

Directions:
In a frying pan put cream cheese to melt. Add in onion and chicken. I shred the chicken with a fork before sticking in the pan. Mix the cream cheese, onion, and chicken together. Sprinkle the oregano and cumin. I just guess how much I sprinkle. Add more cumin than oregano. Taste and add if more is needed.

Once the chicken mix is done remove from heat. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Move to an area where you have space to spread and roll the enchiladas.


Spread a thin layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom of a pan. This helps the enchiladas not to stick on the pan when cooking.


Next your ready to spread and roll. Spread some of the chicken mix on a tortilla. Then add some cheese and a small spoonful of sauce. Roll tortilla and place in pan. Continue till chicken mix in gone. The more chicken you add in a tortilla, the less enchiladas you will make. It makes between 10-12 enchiladas. 


Once enchiladas are rolled, pour the remaining sauce on top of the tortillas. Sprinkle bag of cheese evenly over enchiladas. Put in oven for about 20 minutes or till cheese is melted. Dish up and eat!


And there you have it Easiest Enchiladas Ever! Serve with spanish rice and beans.
