Low-Fat Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas With Creamy Green Chile Sauce

My favorite dish at a local Mexican restaurant is their Chicken Enchiladas with Creamy Green Chile Sauce. I had to try and find a way to lower the fat and sodium so I could enjoy these without the guilt! I tweaked that recipe a bit to lower the sodium and fat, and came up with a winner! My husband and teen daughter gobble these up!Submitted by: BETHPROVERBS31

Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup

This tortilla soup tastes better than anything you can get at a restaurant. And it's healthy too! Don't let the long list of ingredients fool you. All you do is dump everything into the slow cooker and walk away. Submitted by: DIXIED88

Chicken Enchilada-Style for the Slow Cooker

I threw this together from what I had in my pantry at the time. With proper planning, I'd use fat-free soup and sour cream. It is delicious as-is, but fat could certainly stand to be cut.

You can put the chicken into the slow cooker while still frozen, so prep time is virtually non-existent! A great choice to throw in before bed for lunch at work or in the morning for that night's dinner.

This recipe calls for two pounds of chicken, also because it was what I had available (three large breasts), but would make a great meal with just one pound, too.

I served this along with brown rice and black beans. Tasty!Submitted by: BLUEKITTEN

Husband and I both loved this one. I sauted the pepper, garlic, onions, and chicken then put all the ingredients into a crock pot and cooked for 6 hours. I doubled the recipe and added extra chicken. Will definately make this one again. - 9/27/08

I made this for lunch today and boy was it YUMMY! My 21 year old son loved it too! I omit green pepper, added jalepeno's chopped instead. I also reduced the sodium by using no salt vegetables and fresh corn & tomatoes. I used canned black beans(rinsed) I served with dollup of fat free sour cream. - 11/11/08

We love this. I didn't saute anything, I put the onions, beans and corn into the crockpot, added garlic/onion/chili powder and some Pace Picante, then put the chik breasts on top. After it was done, I shredded the chicken and served over brown rice with cilantro (w/ bit of cheese and sour cream). - 9/24/09

This was surprisingly good. I substituted red pepper for the green pepper and used leftover rotisserie chicken. Good source of veggies--will make again. - 9/10/08

Love it! To add a little more zip use a jalapeno with green pepper, dry chili pepper, or a couple Tbs of your favorite salsa. I served with a dollup of fat free sour cream & a pinch of shredded cheese. yumm - 5/8/09

Delicious and so easy to make. My kind of recipe! I did add 3 small jalapenos fresh out of the garden. I will be making this one again. This is also thick enough we will probably be using this in tortillas too. Served on rice for dinner and it was delicious. - 9/24/09

this was good. fairly easy and quick too. i'll make it again, but i'll be doctering it up a little, not sure how - it seemed like it was missing something. we like spice in this house, so maybe that was it. good though - it will go into rotation for sure! - 11/16/08

Everyone at my house loved this recipe. It sure seemed like a lot more than 3 servings so I am not sure the calorie count is accurate, but I will be making this again. - 2/6/08

Used Pinto beans instead of black beans, but otherwise copied the recipe, and really enjoyed it, the cumin was an experiment for me as never tried in anything other than indian food. - 9/24/09

Tried it for dinner this evening...my husband and I both liked it. Certainly easy and colorful.I didn't have any green chilis..but would use them if I had them. I was tempted to add grated cheese. - 11/11/08
