Buffalo Chicken Enchiladas



These enchiladas are a great twist on the classic.My husband has decided this is the best meal he has ever had! (gee, that says a lot about my cooking right!) I cooked up half these, and put the other half in the freezer.







Ingredients
9 Tortillas
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
1- 10 oz can red enchilada sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons bbq sauce (optional)
1/3 to 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (depending on how "wingey" you want them to taste)
1 cup Mexican blend cheese, shredded
3 oz Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled (I cheaped out and used Feta and it was excellent)
1/4 yellow onion, chopped
1 red (or green) pepper, chopped
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions



Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Whisk together enchilada sauce, ketchup, bbq sauce and wing sauce in a bowl. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, combine shredded chicken, yellow onion, red pepper, 1/2 cup shredded cheese and 3/4 cup of the sauce mixture.
Spray 9x13 baking dish with non stick spray then drizzle a bit of the enchilada sauce in bottom of pan.
Fill tortillas with a couple heaping spoon fulls of chicken mixture. Roll and place in baking pan seams down.
Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the top of tortillas, then sprinkle remaining cheese on top. Bake for 20-25 min.
Sprinkle Gorgonzola cheese over top of enchiladas immediately after removing from oven. Garnish with cilantro and green onions.

You can add more beer and tomato paste to stretch recipe, just do it in a one to one ratio. After mixture is done simmering use cornstarch to thicken (directions are on cornstarch canister.) Serve over buttered egg noodles.


We got these egg noodles at Sam's club. we really like them, they taste homemade.

Chicken Pot Pie...Super Easy!

To start you are going to need:
3 Chicken Breast, cooked and cut into small pieces
2 Potatoes, cooked and cut into small pieces
2 cups of veggies, cooked (corn, carrots, peas.. etc.)
You can also use cans of the above, you would need probably 2
I pkg of Cream Cheese
1 can of Chicken Gravy
I pkg of Pastery Pie (I believe that is what they are called)
Any spices that you love

Step 1:
Once everything is cooked you can put that aside and soften the Cream Cheese and Chicken gravy on the stove. Once that is creamy add in the veggies and chicken. Put all the seasonings that you love. I used Garlic salt, Italian seasoning, Oregano.. etc.

Step 2:

Use one of the pastery's and put it on the bottom and have it look like above. You will put that in the oven for 15 mins.(make sure you spray the bottom) Once that comes out add everything in it.

Step 3:

Put the last pastery on top with some holes. Cook for around 20 mins. You will want to check it every now and then. I have found that sometimes it cooks faster then the last time. Just until it is alittle golden brown.

It is so yummy and easy. The best left overs for lunch the next day too.

Enjoy!

Yummy food and good Friends
