Gina's Chicken Enchiladas

Chicken enchiladas

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken (or beef or pork)
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 tbsp butter
4-oz can diced green chili peppers (I use Ortega)
3-oz package of cream cheese, softened
1 tbsp milk
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
10 3/4 oz can condensed cream of chicken soup
8 oz sour cream
1 cup milk
3/4 cup shredded jack or cheddar cheese (I use mixed)
1 tbsp minced onions

In a skillet cook the onion in the butter until onion is tender. Remove from heat and add 1 tbsp of green chili peppers (save the rest of peppers for the sauce)

In a medium bowl combine cream cheese, 1 tbsp milk, minced onion and cumin. Add the onion and butter mixture and chicken and stir until mixed. Spoon about 3 tbsp of the mixture onto each tortilla and roll. Place them seam side down in a greased baking dish.

For sauce, in a medium bowl combine the reserved chili peppers, soup, sour cream and 1 cup milk. Pour evenly over the tortillas in the baking dish. Cover with foil and bake at 350 for 35 mins or until heated through. Remove foil and sprinkle the top with grated cheese and return to oven and bake until cheese melts, about 5 mins.

Doni's chicken pot pie

**** No Roll Pie Dough *****
ingredients directions

1 ½ cup flour
½ tea salt
1 tea sugar
½ cup oil
2 TBSP cold milk

Mix together in a pie shell and press on sides.

The filling...throw all this in the crust, no need to mix, it does it itself

2-3 chicken breasts diced, cooked
1 bag frozen mixed veggies (I've also used canned)
1 can cream of mushroom or chicken
1 can cream of potato (I've substituted cream of whatever ina pinch)

Put second pie crust on top.

If you are using premade frozen pie crusts, this takes about 35 mins on 350. With the homeade, you are looking at about an hour to an hour and 15mins.

Its so freakin good.

Mix, pour batter and spread around to make them as thin as you like, cook till bubbly and flip, eat and enjoy!!

I add all the optional stuff, but that is just my own fooling around with the recipe.
