Introduction

Basic cheese/chicken/olive enchiladas. Not really low-fat but not horrible either. Can lighten up with lowfat cheese - I entered it the way I made it. Basic cheese/chicken/olive enchiladas.

Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

    1 lb chicken, chopped and cooked.
    1 can enchilada sauce
    1.5 lb shredded mozzarella(ok, you can use any cheese or combination - I happen to love mozzarella)
    1 small can (8 oz) of sliced black olives
    8 soft taco size flour tortillas

Directions

spray an 11x9" baking dish with non-stick spray. pour a little (1/4c or so) enchilada sauce in the bottom.

Use all the chicken, reserve about 1/5 o f the can of olives and about 1/4 of the cheese.

Assembly line-style, I warm the tortillas in a pan, then coat both sides with enchilada sauce on a plate, then fill with chicken and cheese and black olives. roll each enchilada up and put crosswise in the pan. 8 should fit. Top with the reserved olives and cheese. I usually make a mix of chicken & cheese, chicken/olive/cheese and just olive/cheese ones.

Can be made ahead of time. Freezes well.
Bake in a 375* oven for about 20 minutes or until cheese is melted through.

Makes 8 enchiladas.
