Itsy Bitsy Foodies

Growing up one of my favorite meals was my mom’s Easy Enchilada Casserole: layers of corn tortillas, chicken chili and enchilada sauce.  It’s super quick and easy because it only requires opening cans and layering the ingredients in a casserole pan. 

I decided to recreate that dish with homemade ingredients, using my red enchilada sauce, chicken and corn tortillas.  You can use any number of meat fillings: taco meat, lime chicken or shredded chicken, to name a few.  You can use store-bought tortillas if you are short on time or don’t want to mess with making them.  If you buy them, ideally you can find a local taqueria that makes and sells tortillas because homemade tortillas are simply the best!  Though it’s not as quick as pouring from a can, the dish still comes together easily and can be prepared in advance so that you can simply pop it in the oven to heat it through when you are ready to eat.
