    Wow that really is sooo easy and I love how the ingredient line up is so minimal as well! A great way to use up any leftover rotisserie chicken! I must bookmark this for later!

      Thanks, Christie! It really is the perfect dinner for those busy weeknights… hope you love it! 🙂

  3. Rachel Wood says:

    Made these last night! They were delicious! Would these freeze well??

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Rachel ~ I’m so glad you liked them! I honestly haven’t tried freezing these yet, as I’ve never had leftovers with my hungry hubby and teenage boys. 🙂 If you do try freezing them, let me know how they turn out!

    1. Heidi Miller says:

      Thank you so much! 🙂

  5. Tina says:

    I made this a few weeks ago and my family loved it! They wanted more! Can you use taco sized tortillas with this recipe in the 9×13 baking dish as well? I have a pot luck next week and would like to make smaller proportions of this for more people.

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Tina ~ I’m so glad to hear your family loved this dish! My family sure loves it, too! You can definitely use soft taco size tortillas as well… I’ve done that several times, and it turns out great! This would be perfect for a potluck! 🙂

  6. Denise M says:

    How many servings is this?

    1. Robin says:

      With my family, they eat a whole enchilada a piece. So depending on how big you make them, you can fit 6-8 in one pan.

  7. Karen says:

    I Love the frugAlgiers sute. The recipes are easy and fun.

    1. Heidi Miller says:

      Thank you… I’m so glad you’re enjoying the easy recipes!

  8. jamie says:

    No enchilada sauce in this? or what is put in the top besides sour cream and cream of chicken to make it red?

  9. Sen says:

    That looks delicious. Will probably try making this week.

    1. Heidi Miller says:

      Fantastic… they really are SO simple to make!

  10. Andie says:

    This looks so yummy! I’m adding it to my meal planning for next week’s dinners.

    1. Heidi says:

      Thanks, Andie… hope you love them! We sure do! 😉

      1. Robin says:

        I have done this for years. The only difference is I mix cream of chicken, cream of mushroom, sour cream, and ground cumin. I split the mixture, ⅓ goes on top and ⅔ goes in the chicken. I don’t use chilies. this is an all time family favorite!

      2. Robin says:

        No enchilada sauce. The red look is just the camelized cheese. I have done this for years. The only difference is I mix cream of chicken, cream of mushroom, sour cream, and ground cumin. I split the mixture, ⅓ goes on top and ⅔ goes in the chicken. I don’t use chilies. this is an all time family favorite!
