Stove Top Enchiladas


I'll give you a break from all the sweets and offer something savory! This is a super easy meal. Especially if you are using left over chicken. In my case I just took out of the freezer a zip lock bag with pre-cooked chicken. You can also substitute chicken for pulled pork or ground beef or even left over pot roast, cut up real fine.

In a large saute pan or dutch oven style pot, dump:

2 cups shredded chicken, cooked
1 can cream of mushroom
large can enchilada sauce
1/2 cup sour cream
2 T chopped olives

Get the mixture simmering. While you are waiting for this to heat up start on your tortillas.

Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds:

about 10 corn tortillas on a plate

Fill each tortilla with shredded cheddar cheese. Then place in the simmering mixture, seam side down. Let simmer for about 5 minutes. Serve with lettuce. The lettuce is a must in my opinion. It adds a great crunch and gives a neutral to all the spices going on.
