Red Enchiladas

This is one of our favorite family recipes. I got this recipe from my wonderful sister-in-law Becky.

2 chicken breasts cooked and cubed
1 can chili con carne/no beans (we use chili with beans)
1/2 pound Monterey jack cheese, shredded
1 can Enchilada sauce (Rosarita is the best)
sprinkling of onion powder 
8-10 flour tortillas

Cook chicken and dice. Assemble enchiladas by putting chicken onion powder and cheese inside. I first mix these up in a bowl together to make it easier. Roll up tortillas and put in a 9x13 inch pan. Pour enchilada sauce and chili all over the top of the tortillas. Bake at 350 degrees for about 25-30 minutes. 

These are yummy with a dollop of sour cream on top or to make it restaurant style you could put some shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes on top.

Enjoy!!
