Cream Cheese Chicken Enchiladas

 Another tasty recipe we have made and loved! This one is from Erin with The Spiffy Cookie.



INGREDIENTS

  • 5 oz. cream cheese, room temperature (I used reduced fat)
  • 1/4 cup sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt)
  • 10 oz. can of enchilada sauce
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 3/4 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese, divided
  • 1/2 cup shredded cotija cheese (or more of the above cheeses)
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (I used a rotisserie)
  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed (or canned, drained)
  • 4 oz. can diced green chiles
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • Salt and pepper
  • 4 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 8 (8-inch) flour tortillas (I used whole wheat)
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray a 9×13 dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the cream cheese, sour cream, and 1/2 of the enchilada sauce. Stir in 1/2 cup each of cheddar and monterey jack cheese.
  3. In a second bowl toss together the chicken, corn, cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper, green chiles, and half of the scallions. Add the chicken mixture to the cheese mixture and combine well.
  4. Spread about half of the remaining enchilada sauce (1/4 of the can) in the bottom of the baking dish.
  5. Spoon the filling into each tortilla, roll the tortilla up, and place in the baking dish with the seam down. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top of the filled tortillas and sprinkle with the remaining cheeses. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Sprinkle with the remaining scallions and serve.

Marry Me Meatballs

 I can’t say no to crockpot recipes and Your Barefoot Neighbor shared this one so I had to try it. I’d like to say my children aren’t picky but they all have their own quirks when it comes to food and my youngest daughter didn’t care for the sun-dried tomatoes. Everyone else enjoyed it as it is.  Marry Me Meatballs Ingredients 2 lbs frozen Italian meatballs 4 C chicken stock 1 jar sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped  1 can cream of chicken soup Italian seasoning Garlic powder Onion powder  Red pepper flakes 2 lbs gnocchi (shelf stable ones) 1/2 pint heavy whipping cream Baby spinach  Shredded Parmesan cheese (I used shaved Parmesan) Directions Add meatballs, chicken stock, cream of chicken soup, sun-dried tomatoes and seasonings to crockpot. Cook on high for 3 hours. When that is done add in your gnocchi, heavy cream and baby spinach and cook for another 30 minutes on high. Top with the Parmesan cheese. Serve with garlic toast.

Sausage & Rice Casserole

 Last night we failed to pull anything out of the freezers for dinner. Seems to be a common thing here in this house and it’s quite frustrating. I went to my fridge and saw the mushrooms I had gotten and remembered there was a TikTok recipe for them. Y’all this was the EASIEST meal!  Sausage & Rice Casserole Ingredients  1 lb Jimmy Dean sausage 2 pouches of Uncle Ben’s long grain and wild rice  1 1/2 C. Mozzarella or Cheddar cheese, shredded  1 can of golden mushroom soup 1 package of sliced mushrooms  Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brown sausage, add in mushrooms once almost all the way cooked. While that’s cooking down, pop your rice pouches in the microwave per the instructions. When they’re done add them in with the sausage and mushrooms. Also add in your can of golden mushroom soup and the shredded cheese. Mix it all up and put in the oven for 15 minutes.
