    Chicken Enchilada Puffs, I grabbed this one from an e-mailed newsletter from the That’s My Home! website I will definately be making these for my Oscar Party This looks like it should be done early in the day, so plan accordingly , I prepared these as part of the snack feast for our Super Bowl party Using only a tablespoon of filling per puff of pastry, I had a great deal of filling left over However, I think that it will be a head-start on enchiladas for dinner tomorrow I omitted the celery and upped the cumin and chili powder in the filling and used a spicy pepper jack cheese to up the flavor I had some difficulty with sealing the puffs prior to baking, but everything resolved itself in the oven The dough cooked together and puffed beautifully I served these with my homemade canned salsa from my summer tomatoes The plate was empty at the end of the evening
