Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked and shredded rotisserie chicken
- 10 ounces Enchilada Sauce
- 1/2 cup Buffalo sauce (store-bought or click for recipe)
- 8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese divided
- 1 can 10 ounces Rotel tomatoes
- 12 flour tortillas burrito size
- 1 can 10-3/4 ounces condensed cream of celery soup
- 1/2 cup blue cheese salad dressing
- 4 ounces low fat cream cheese
- crumbled blue cheese
- Optional Toppings: blue cheese chopped roma tomatoes, chopped celery, sliced green onions, freshly chopped cilantro, ranch, sour cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick spray. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine cooked chicken, enchilada sauce, buffalo sauce, rotel tomatoes, and 1 ½ cups cheddar cheese. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, heat soup and dressing until just bubbly. Stir in the cream cheese until melted and then the remaining cheddar cheese (leave a bit for the top of the enchiladas as well) until melted. Take off heat and set aside.
- Place chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla (about ¼ cup) and roll the tortilla to create the enchilada. Place in the baking dish seam side down.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the top of the enchiladas and use a spoon to smooth out if the mixture is a bit thick. Sprinkle with more cheddar cheese (optional) and sprinkle with a bit of blue cheese crumbles.
- Bake at 350F for 30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas cooked through, browned.
- Top with extra toppings as desired.
- Enjoy!
- **NOTES: If you prefer less spicy, you can use a can of regular tomatoes instead of the Rotel tomatoes. If you want them even spicier, add in some chopped jalapeños!
