I was so excited to use this recipe. I got it from a friend and thought why not? I haven't made enchiladas in FOREVER. Why? It is very time consuming and my family doesn't always appreciate what I cook.
To start off I stuck 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts in my crockpot and cooked on high for 4 to 6 hours.
At about an hour before dinner I prepared the sauce and then layered the ingredients in my crockpot. What I found out about this recipe is that I had very little prep time, I used less ingredients than I would have with regular enchiladas and therefore I saved $$! Plus, I didn't have to turn on my oven to make a hot meal. That's a win/win situation for me!
Crockpot Chicken Enchiladas
3c. water
1 c. Whisk Bliss Original or Gluten Free
1 t. Shirley J's Chicken Bouillon
1 small bag of Velveeta's Mexican Style Cheese
1 or 2 small cans of chopped green chilies (I used one and it was enough for us)
1 to 2 c. cooked or caned chicken
12 tortillas (I used 4 and that seemed enough)
Directions:
Cook your chicken, if you need to. Mix and cook water, bouillon, and Whisk Bliss until thickened and smooth. Crumble Velveeta into mixture and cook until melted. Take the chicken and pour the green chilies and sprinkle in some cheese and mix until it holds together. Take sauce and spread it out onto the bottom of the crock pot. Then place a tortilla on top. Next spread some chicken and then repeat the layering. (I layered it 4 times and had a little sauce left over and spread it on top and then placed some extra cheese on top!) Cook on high for an hour!
This is what the meat looked like after I added the chilies and the cheese. I couldn't find ANY Velveeta "Mexican Style" cheese and I went to 2 stores.
The layering process!
Now the sauce!
Then another tortilla and then repeat! ENJOY!
The love of cooking, Shirley J, saving time, saving money, and having fun! Stay with me as I share my loves with you!

I like to make double the amount and then take the left over and put it in a Ziplock baggie for another meal. Makes for a quick meal when you need one in less than 30 minutes!

Scalloped Potatoes & Ham
I found this website on Pinterest and saw that they had freezable crock pot meals. I LOVE easy and dinners that I can take and freeze, especially when it's the end of the pay period and I don't have anything on the shelves. It's soooo nice.
Now these ingredients will make 2 meals. You each meal will feed around 6 to 7 adults. So you can make one for today and put the rest in a baggie and freeze for later. So nice, so easy!
So here are the ingredients:
2 c. of water
2 ham steaks, cubed--we used turkey ham
8 oz cheddar cheese
4 cups of broccoli
salt and pepper
Now these ingredients will make 2 meals. You each meal will feed around 6 to 7 adults. So you can make one for today and put the rest in a baggie and freeze for later. So nice, so easy!
So here are the ingredients:
12 new potatoes and cut into ¼ inch round slices or a large
bag of frozen potatoes
1 c. Whisk Bliss Original or Gluten Free2 c. of water
2 ham steaks, cubed--we used turkey ham
8 oz cheddar cheese
4 cups of broccoli
salt and pepper
Directions: Whisk up
your Whisk Bliss with the water before hand, make sure it starts to thicken.
Don't bring it to a simmer. Divide everything evenly into two containers. Cook on low for 8 hours. **I put my cheese on
top the last 30 minutes of cooking. I have found that if you add it too soon it
will curdle on you.
*EDIT* People have mentioned the potatoes turning black if
frozen. Mine didn't do that, but just to
be safe, either use frozen potatoes or add potatoes the day of cooking.
This is what your Whisk Bliss sauce will look like.
And here is the final results, ready to freeze. This photo was taken from www.six-cents.com
