Michelle's
Chicken Cheese Enchiladas

1 can - Nacho Cheese Soup
½ cup – Milk
2 cups – shredded cooked chicken
½ cup – salsa
1 can (4 oz) – chopped green chilies
1 teaspoon – chili powder
8 – flour tortillas


1. In small bowl, combine soup and milk . . . set aside.
2. In medium bowl, combine chicken, salsa, chilies, chili powder and 2 tablespoons of soup mixture.

3. To make enchiladas, spread 1/3 cup of chicken mixture along one side of each tortilla. Roll up each tortilla, jellyroll fashion; place seamside down in greased 3-quart oblong baking dish. (An 11x7, 2-quart pan works really well.)

4. Spread remaining soup mixture over enchiladas. Cover with foil.
5. Bake at 375o for 35 minutes, or until hot and bubbling.

(My mom got this recipe from a cousin on my dad's side of the family in 1999.)
