Chicken Enchiladas
Ingredients
2 cloves garlic
1 large onion, chopped
8 ounces mushrooms, chopped
2 cans Rotel
Black pepper (to taste)
Red pepper flakes (to taste)
4 chicken breasts, cooked and diced (I marinate ours in Allegro marinade)
2 cups shredded 2% cheddar cheese
8 Tortillas (I use Carb-Balance flour tortillas with 12 grams of fiber, but you can use what you prefer)
Saute the onion and garlic using Pam spray. Add mushrooms. Add the cans of rotel and both peppers, let simmer until liquid reduces. Take half of tomato mixture and stir in with chicken. In each tortilla, sprinkle some cheese, then spoon 1/8 of chicken mixture into tortilla. Roll up, and place in a 13x9 baking dish. Repeat until you have made 8 enchiladas. On top of the enchiladas, spread the remaining tomato mixture and top with cheddar cheese (cheese is optional).
Bake at 350 until cooked through.

Our kids have been known to pour all sorts of things on them at one time or another. We've used taco sauce, salsa, salsa verde, or just nothing. They are fabulous any way you do them.

Salsa
Ingredients
1-2 Jalapeños (depending on how much heat you like)
1 Onion (red is pretty, Vidalia is fabulous if they are in season, but any old onion will do)
Handful of Cilantro - again just use according to taste
28 oz. can Whole Tomatoes, drained (I use a quart of tomatoes I canned from our garden)
2 cans Rotel Tomatoes - drain one can, use the liquid from the other
1 pinch of sugar
1 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of cumin
1 teaspoon of pepper
Juice of 1 lime - I use a squirt of bottle key lime juice ALL the time
Add all ingredients to a food processor and process.
DONE!
