(I shop once a month, on the 10th, for the entire month, so I have to plan ahead a bit) I can't wait to make it.jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11126675657006287838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1738456086812119672.post-87482984145724862682010-10-13T15:56:22.475-04:002010-10-13T15:56:22.475-04:00Hi Jenn, yes.

I made up the rice really quick in a pot on the stove while I cooked up the chicken/cream cheese mixture. Once they were both done, I combined the two and then spooned it into the tortillas and rolled them up. Stretches the chicken really far, I used 2 boneless breasts of chicken and 1 cup (uncooked) of rice to make it. <br /><br />You can jazz it up any way you want with peppers, onions, olives, etc. Whatever your family is into or you have on hand! <br />PS- I have been dreaming of stuffed shells since reading this recipe, just FYI ;)Tara Beaulieuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05797830075678646407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1738456086812119672.post-41503988227413030092010-10-13T13:48:31.072-04:002010-10-13T13:48:31.072-04:00Tammy ~ I didn't break any myself, but a bunch...Tammy ~ I didn't break any myself, but a bunch broke during boiling. I still had enough for one meal, a plate for Junior to take to work, and leftovers for lunches. I thought I overstuffed, too, but I had just enough filling.jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11126675657006287838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1738456086812119672.post-71850660171419540212010-10-13T13:04:43.316-04:002010-10-13T13:04:43.316-04:00They look very yummy.

I mixed the chicken with the rice and then did the rest of the recipe. Talk about a filling dinner! 2 chicken breasts fed my family of 5 and Ed took two for lunch today and there are still 2 left in my fridge- a cheap meal for a big family! :)Tara Beaulieuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05797830075678646407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1738456086812119672.post-20047572490836169132010-10-12T12:48:17.852-04:002010-10-12T12:48:17.852-04:00Tara ~ I've never had chicken enchiladas...the...Tara ~ I've never had chicken enchiladas...they sound yummy.jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11126675657006287838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1738456086812119672.post-42065892974426473142010-10-12T12:19:26.657-04:002010-10-12T12:19:26.657-04:00MMmmmmmm.

I made chicken enchiladas last night and cream cheese is a staple in those (not very Mexican, I know but OMG is it good!) So my vote is YES to cream cheese! :)Tara Beaulieuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05797830075678646407noreply@blogger.com
