1. Thanks it sounds wonderful

I wonder how sliced boneless skinless chicken breast would work, add it raw and brown it with the onions instead of the ground beef . I'm thinking budget too in my area blsl chicken breast is cheaper than burger

2. I bet it would be good

My chicken enchiladas are much different but I have been hooked on the beef ones. It has been a Sunday staple for the last month

3. There are just two of us, so I make my own enchilada sauce to avoid waste

I freeze chicken stock in small amounts, and also freeze small portions of tomato sauce and tomato past from those herkin' big Costco cans. Enough for two meals for two if I freeze half of it.

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce
2 cups water
1 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder (or 1-2 garlic minced garlic cloves)
1 teaspoon onion powder (or a tablespoon of finely minced onion

Heat oil in large 2-quart saucepan; mix dry ingredients well; add them and cook for 1 minute.
Add remaining ingredients bring to a boil and simmer for about 10 minutes.
Makes 3-4 cups sauce.
