Always Delicious Chicken & Cheese Enchiladas image

This is my favorite, favorite chicken enchilada recipe. It's very quick and easy and people are always asking for the recipe. It's from The Junior League of Spokane's Gold'n Delicious cookbook (one of the best cookbooks ever!).

These enchiladas were delicious! I made them for my family and they loved them. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the cheese sauce was creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

These enchiladas were easy to make and they tasted great! I used shredded chicken from a rotisserie chicken and they were still very flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.
