    This is a take on a recipe from the Better Homes and Gardens Magazine, January 1997. The original recipe calls for turkey, which we use occasionally, but we love to have this at other times throughout the year with chicken.

    Chicken or Turkey Enchiladas, This is a take on a recipe from the Better Homes and Gardens Magazine, January 1997 The original recipe calls for turkey, which we use occasionally, but we love to have this at other times throughout the year with chicken , Yum, Yum, Yum!!!!! We loved these, I devided the mixture in 2 and only added the jalapenos to 1 half as my kids wouldn’t eat anything too hot and left the other half as is and it dissappeared very quickly Will definetly be making again I did add more cream cheese than in the recipe, it seemed a little dry but maybe I had too much chicken, but then again with the sauce on top it was fine, thank you :)made for PAC 2006
