     As many others have commented, I use low sodium/low fat soup when making this recipe. Also my recipe uses only the cream of chicken mixed with enchilada sauce rather than sour cream. I spread a bit of refried beans onto each tortila, mix soup and sauce with chicken, sprinkle w/cheese. Family loves! - 4/12/10

     When the dish was FINALLY done, it was ok. The directions said to add the cut up chicken to the mix of soup and cheese, it did not say that the CHICKEN SHOULD BE COOKED FIRST! That would be a good addition to the recipe. Thanks - 4/13/09

     Very good, we used low fat soups and only half the low fat sour cream and then half salsa to cut down calories. Still need to calculate them. Excellent dish. - 1/30/08

     I baked my chicken breasts fn the oven on 350° for 45 minutees (covered with foil). then shredded by using 2 forks. Used low sodium cream of celery & cream of chicken soups....but only 1/2 of each can. Used only a tsp. sour cream to top each enchilada...Then used salsa instead of chili peppers. - 4/12/09

     WOW, I would not make this just because of the nutritional count. It may be very tasty but that is a lot of calories, fat and sodium. TOO much for me - 4/12/10

     use more chilies and you don't need to creamy soups AT ALL. save the sour cream too. make a good flavored chicken breast and use corn tortillas for better use of carbs. use low fat cheese or less of whole white cheddar cheese. add a green enchilada sauce over the tops and enjoy. less calories - 4/12/10

     How about using corn tortillas instead? The chicken definitely needs to be cooked ahead of time like the traditional recipe. You can boil the chicken in a spicy broth with garlic clove, onion, salt and pepper. Thanks for the recipe. - 4/20/09

     Sounds good, but far too much sodium! - 3/20/07

     Okay, but thought the fat & calories to be a bit high. - 6/13/12

     Way too many calories for me for one serving. - 4/12/10

     Tasted very salty and not at all nice. - 4/12/10
  • GOCELTICSGO
     A little too creamy...I like more of a tomato base. - 4/12/10
  • CANEY3
     No thank you, the sodium level in this is way to high. I like the old fashion way of using ehchallida sauce layered with corn tortilla and topped with a little cheese. - 4/15/09
  • TALILAC27
     I make ones that are close to these, but I use a rue (1 T butter healthy choice and flour wheat and 1 cup water with ckn boullion cube) and then add 1/2 8oz jar salsa. This would definately cut the sodium - 4/12/09

     replace the flour tortillas with corn tortillas and you've got King Ranch Chicken.... also corn tortillas will be alot less calories:) - 3/19/07

  • SUSANBEAMON
     Glad I read some of the comments, because I might have used raw chicken, which is a pain to cube. Substituted green pepper for the chilis. Not into spicy hot foods. - 3/12/19
