Has school started for you and your family yet? We still have a few more weeks to go, but I’m gearing up to be a bit more with it this year and more organized. That includes school work/papers, calendar and mealtime! I tend to struggle a little bit when it comes to planning out a weekly menu. That is why I’m starting now at the end of summer to I can get ahead and not really have to think about it last minute! How about some yummy and quick enchiladas everyone is sure to love?
These Chicken and Green Chili Enchiladas are at the top of my list for a few reasons! My family loves them, they are fairly easy to assemble and can be made ahead of time.
I’ve even frozen them (unbaked) and they still turned out perfectly. I let them thaw on the counter for about an hour and increased the bake time by 10-15 minutes. Such a great idea if you REALLY want to be on top of your organizational game!

I love to serve this with my Homemade Mexican Rice and Freshly Cooked Black Beans. Two perfect sides for such a tasty dinner dish!

Amy, this one sounds like a keeper! The idea that they can be made and put in the freezer takes it to the top of my list! We love Mexican food here, so we will be enjoying this one soon! Thanks!
I’m so happy you like these, Kathy!
Corn tortillas are layered with chicken, enchilada sauce, cheese, and Hatch chiles in this layered enchilada dish, great for weeknight dinner.
This was amazing! I used green onion at the end as a garnish, and liked it better.
