Chicken Enchiladas—Freezer Meal Friday

My family loves to eat Mexican food. Chicken Enchiladas is one of our family favorites. It’s simple to make, and I usually make extra because they freeze so well. It’s so great to be able to pull something out of the freezer the night before, and let it thaw overnight, and cook it for dinner the next night.

Chicken Enchiladas

1 t. butter
1/2 c. chopped green onions
1/2 t. garlic powder

In a small bowl, combine the remaining 3/4 of the sauce with the milk. Spoon this mixture over the rolled tortillas and top with the remaining cheddar cheese. Bake in oven for 30 – 35 minutes until cheese is bubbly. (I usually add a bit more cheese, just for good measure.)
