Swiss enchiladas.
 

Well..heres my version of swiss enchiladas from my old cooking light magazine...i can post the original if anyone else wants it....

Preheat oven to 350f.

2 large chicken breasts cooked and cubed
(1) 14.5 oz can petite diced tomatoes undrained
(2) 4.5 oz cans diced green chiles undrained
1 1/2 cups chopped or diced onion
2 tsp garlic minced
dash chili powder, salt, pepper
1 cup 1/2 and 1/2
1 cup heavy cream
4 tsp brown rice farina (or other thickener desired)
6 lowcarb 8 inch tortillas
1 cup each monteray jack and swiss cheese shredded and combined


Sautee onion for 5 minutes or until soft. Add garlic, tomato, peppers and chicken. Simmer 7 minutes or until liquid evaporates. Sprinkle with chili powder and salt/pepper to taste. Set aside.

In saucepan over medium high heat bring creams to a rolling boil stirring constantly and add farina. Stir over heat until thickens. (this takes a little while....i also used the electric beater once to whip it up some)

Add about a half cup of chicken mixture and 2Tb of cheese mixture to each tortilla and roll up. Place open side down into a greased 13x9 pan. Top with cream mixture and remaining cheese. ( i had to grate more cheese because i wanted more than just a thin layer over the top....be as generous as you want with the cheese).

Bake for 30 minutes or until cheese is bubbly. For a crispy cheese on top broil for the last 5 minutes. (my broiler does not work so i just increased the temp to 500 for the last 5 minutes.)

See pics below.
(The original calls for 2 cups of swiss but i was worried about the taste....i think next time i'd do it all swiss and put the mont. jack on top. I would also drain the tomatoes and add some spicy salsa. Maybe even sub a can of jalapenos for the chilis. This recipe was a huge hit and my bf LOVED it! Its so creamy and cheesy and mild yet spicy.....YUM!)







Yummmmmy! The finished product:

What time is dinner??!!! Get ready cuz I'm coming!!!! :yum:

Those look amazing!! Yum :)

YW :)
they turned out great....bf and i were both silent through dinner..lol...surprisingly filling too. we're both cheese fans and would eat cheese buffet if we could every night..lol....so this was satisfying and LC

Will be trying these tonight, what a great idea...I was making chicken tonight anyway..

I have all the ingredients to make them so YAY!!!

I will add salsa verde on top as well after they are cooked....

Made these last night...Though I changed them up a bit...I didn't have heavy cream so I used a 0 carb taco sauce and also added salsa verde to the bottle of the dish before rolling up my lc tortilla's and placing them in there.

YUM!

Think I might try these using Cleo's tortilla recipe since I am allergic to wheat.

Shorty that sounds like a good idea!

And charlie.....i think any kind of tortilla would work!
