Speedy Cheese and Chicken Enchiladas image

These yummy enchiladas are my daughter's favorite AND this has to be one of my all-time favorite recipes for OAMC - So very quick-to-make and freezes beautifully! Just double wrap the entire 9x13" baking dish after assembly, freeze it, and later thaw the dish full of enchiladas in the refrigerator for several hours then bake. It's that easy!

Time 25m

Yield 8 enchiladas

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups diced cooked chicken
1 (15 ounce) can green enchilada sauce, divided
