Creamy White Chicken Enchiladas
Jessica Goyette, science teacher at PAHS shares, “My kids LOVE making Creamy Chicken Enchiladas. Senora Ilardi shared the recipe...so give her credit! Liliana loves to help make them. Last time she ate two and half enchiladas! It is a fan favorite in our house. Definitely try it with any picky eaters. Variation: We omit the green chillies. Why? Because they are green of course! What kid trusts green food?”
