Recipe Try Out: Crescent Roll Chicken Enchiladas

Because there is only so much I can write about Landon on a regular basis, I thought I'd try throwing in a few "Recipe Try Outs" once in a while to mix things up.

I will preface this with the fact that I am a "Semi-Homemade" kinda' gal. Unless it's a Sunday or there is a crock pot involved, I don't really like to spend more than 30 minutes throwing something together. I don't mind if something takes a while to bake - I just don't like doing a lot of prep work on most days (since that usually means more clean up, too).

Last night, we tried out Easy Chicken Enchiladas (ole!) which consisted of 4 ingredients:

2c shredded chicken
1 can (10oz) of red enchilada sauce
2 cans of crescent roll dough
About a cup of shredded cheese

Recipe is found in this Pillsbury link. I originally found it by going to www.crescents364.com to research how we could more frequently stuff our arteries with the buttery flakey goodness of crescent roll dough.


The verdict: It was easy to pull together and I think it tasted pretty darn good. It didn't puff up as much as I thought it would, so I will let it bake a little longer next time. With a side of corn and some sour cream and avocado, it was a thumbs up from me! Erik was a bit more hesitant with his verdict, noting that we could easily just put the filling in tortillas next time...and yes, that is true, but where would we get the buttery flakey goodness from?
