We love using rotisserie chicken in this recipe since all you have to do is shred the chicken, assemble, top it with sauce, cheese, and bake! Ingredients and VariationsEnchiladas are so versatile! MEAT – Our basic recipe uses pre-cooked chicken, but leftover chicken or even turkey can be used! TORTILLAS – Flour or corn tortillas will do, but if corn is what’s on hand, soften them in the microwave for about 30 seconds before filling them. DAIRY – For a lower fat version of the sour cream sauce, use plain Greek yogurt. Even a mixture of mayonnaise and yogurt will do in a pinch! VARIATIONS – Make an enchilada soup using the same recipe by adding two cans of crushed tomatoes and chicken broth or make a hearty chili by adding black beans and kidney beans!

If using an ice cube tray, freeze and then shortly after recomve the subes and place them in an air tight container. Place it in the freezer. To thaw: place in the fridge to thaw for a few hours or even overnight.
Can you freeze creamy enchiladas?TO FREEZE: Allow the enchiladas to cool, then cover each container with a layer of plastic wrap (this will help with freezer burn), followed by a layer of foil. Label the containers, making sure to note the need to remove the layer of plastic wrap before baking.
Is it better to freeze enchiladas cooked or uncooked?I prefer to freeze uncooked enchiladas, then bake them just before serving. This preserves the texture of the enchiladas, whereas freezing cooked enchiladas often results in soggy or rubbery tortillas.
Can cream cheese enchiladas be frozen?Wrap the uncooked enchiladas pan tightly with plastic wrap, pressing down gently to remove air. Cover with foil, label and freeze. Best if used within 4 months.
