Add chicken bits into a mixing bowl or Tupperware container and mix in 1/4 cup of enchilada sauce.
Evenly distribute the chicken/sauce mixture onto your six tortillas (about 2 ounces of chicken per tortilla.)
Sprinkle on 1/8 cup of shredded cheese into each tortilla, roll 'em up and place into a casserole dish.

This is an excellent recipe!! I made it tonight, and my husband and I loved it. I edited to make it for 2 people - I used just four tortillas and scaled back on everything else. I was in a hurry so I used one 5 oz can of cooked chicken and that was the perfect amount for two people. Thanks!!! - 4/30/10

Just plain enchilada sauce just didn't zing for my kids. I took the extra can of enchilada sauce and added a can of no bean Hormel chili to it and poured it over them. After cooked, we added green onions, dollop of sour cream, lettuce and tomato, served with mexican rice and the kids all perked up. - 2/11/13
