Can these be frozen? Right before baking in oven?
My husband and daughter can be so picky and they were both licking the plate clean! 10/10
I will make these 100 more times. Adding them to the rotation! They were fulll of taste and so good. The only modification was to make my own enchilada sauce from scratch. It’s really simple and came out lovely! Thx for another great recipe!
Absolutely AMAZING! So simple and delicious.
Hi!
What brand salsa verde did you use for your Shredded Chicken Enchiladas? Thank you
I think she normally uses the Trader Joe’s brand salsa verde! At least from what I’ve seen from her other taco recipes.
