I have a soft spot for Mexican food, I could eat it everyday! Luckily my husband is the same way. This recipe for Creamy Chicken Enchiladas is our favorite! The filling is creamy and cheesy and made in the crock pot! This makes a great freezer meal, too!
So, pretty much I could eat these everyday. When I was pregnant I made a double batch and froze it for an easy meal after my baby was born. It’s a great dish to make for company too! The chicken cooks in the crock pot, so it’s totally fuss free. Once you roll the enchiladas you top these with sauce and cheese and bake until bubbly! Serve with a salad and cornbread (this is the BEST!) and you have a meal that everyone will love!!

Can this be made on high for 3-4 hrs?

Yes, it can. Enjoy!
Teanna Pugh says
Have you tried it with frozen chicken breasts? If so how long would it have to cook for?
Breanna says
What size flour tortillas would you recommend?
Stephanie Brubaker says
I use 8″ tortillas. Hope you enjoy the enchiladas!
Shelley says
Can u substitute the cream cheese for something else
Stephanie Brubaker says
The cream cheese can be left out, but it’s what makes these so awesome!
Faith says
Yum!! These look amazing. I am going to make 1 for dinner and freeze 2! I am pregnant and need to start preparing frozen meals for when baby is here, like you mentioned. What would the cooking time be right out of the freezer or would you recommend thawing first? Thank you!!

This is just screaming “get in mah bellah”. I love how cheesy these are. I’m of the mind “more is better”, so this works for me.

Stephanie,
We love enchiladas around here. Everyone likes the cheesy goodness, and I like how I can stuff all sorts of things into a tortilla and it all tastes good. Even turnips!
Thanks for a new recipe idea!
