Tomatillo Chicken Enchilada Roll Ups #kraftrecipemakers

October 1, 2013 By Shannah Coe 48 Comments

We all know that getting dinner on the table can be tough.  If you have kids, a full time job or even just a lot of activities, a home cooked dinner tends to fall further and further down the priority list just from sheer lack of time.  Thankfully, smart people like the ones who work at Kraft think of ways to help a momma {or daddy} out!  Their newest time saver, Kraft Recipe Makers, are perfect for helping you get a jumpstart on a delicious meal.  You can either go with the recipe printed right on the back of the box or create something new like I did with these tomatillo chicken enchilada roll ups.

Of course, I couldn’t just give you a recipe for chicken enchiladas. That is already right there on the box.

#shop Kraft Recipe Makers Box_wmI knew I wanted break out of our normal dinner rut while also keeping the meal simple and easy to prepare.  So, I did what I love to do best and combined two different types of cuisines: Mexican and Italian.

What You’ll Need:
1 box of Kraft Verde Chicken Enchilada Recipe Makers
1 cup shredded, cooked chicken {go ahead and shred it with your mixer}
1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup corn
1 small onion, finely chopped
8 cooked lasagna noodles, laid flat
1 cup shredded queso blanco cheese

Let’s Make It:
1)  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spray a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray.  Spread 1/2 of the finishing sauce into the bottom of the prepared pan.

2)  In a medium sized bowl, combine the chicken and the creamy ranchero filling sauce.  Stir well to combine.

3)  In large bowl, combine the beans, corn and onion and stir well.  Add chicken mixture to bowl and stir.

4) Working one by one with each lasagna noodle, spread filling along the inside of the noodle, top with 1 Tbsp of shredded cheese and then roll up.

Place the rolled noodles in the prepared baking dish. Top with remaining finishing sauce and shredded cheese.

5) Bake enchilada roll ups in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve with sour cream, avocado slices and green onions.

    Yum! Your pictures are so awesome I want to eat again, and I have already had my dinner. Kraft Recipe Makers, huh? I haven’t ever used them, but if they can help me turn out a dinner entree like this one, I am all for them. I wonder if I can flip them gluten free? Don’t worry, I will figure it out!
