Very simple and quick! These can be made for a quick weeknight dinner and picky eaters! Serve with diced onions, black olives, sour cream, and salsa.

Great as is, but can be improved with additions of your choosing. May need a bit more enchilada sauce if you want to dip or pour it on top. Read More

I don't make changes on the first try. Maybe next time. Everyone loved it. I bought a quesadillas maker for the next time. Taco Bell just lost a customer. Read More

Pretty good and certainly easy! Kids liked but I gave only 4 stars bc the seasoning was a bit much even after adding another chicken breast and some extra water I thought it was quite strong! Maybe will use less than a packet next time. Read More

I doubled the recipe and took other reviewers advice and cooked a little longer on high with the lid off after shredding the chicken to thicken the sauce. Everyone loved them and not too spicy. I ll add jalapeños next time when I m not making them for a crowd. Read More
