This was something I came up with after wanting a easy way of making them without the regular enchilada red sauce. Its one of the kids favorite meals and my other half, it is a very filling meal easy and not real expensive! They turned out good! I hope all enjoy this as we do!

    Get out your 8 to 16 Flour tortillas and Cheeses,open your flour tortillas, your cheeses, and have them ready for making tortillas.Spray your casserole dish or 9x13 baking pan with the nonstick butter spray. And spray dish well, add some of the sauce mix to bottom of pan. To make tortillas, take 1 tortilla, add handfull of chicken and onions mix, add both your cheeses on top, in a line, roll in both ends and fold over slowly to make a closed burrito. Place into casserole dish, make more til dish is full. Note: Any leftovers can be made into chicken and cheese burritos for a snack for lunch. Then pour rest of sauce over enchiladas. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes at 350 degree oven. when time is up add extra mozzarella and mild cheddar cheese to top allow to bake til cheese is melted and just starts to turn brown. Your enchiladas are done.Hope You enjoy this as much as we do!
