EASY ROTISSERIE CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
Rotisserie chicken is something we all buy on occasion as it's quick and when you remove the skin it isn't too bad for you either. It is great by itself, but over the years I have started using it in a few of my recipes. This not only saves time, it is even better than 'just chicken'. My rotisserie chicken enchiladas is one of those recipes! The rotisserie meat is so tender and perfect for this type of meal, and with my homemade enchilada sauce? YUM. Adults and kids love this one and if you control the cheese, it is healthy yet satisfying. My recipe serves approximately 6 and takes less than one-hour from start to devour. So easy and so DELISH (also gluten free)!

Tips:
- Shred the chicken ahead of time: This will save you time when you're assembling the enchiladas. You can shred the chicken in a food processor, with a hand mixer, or simply by hand.
- Use a variety of cheeses: This will give your enchiladas a more complex flavor. Some good cheeses to use include cheddar, mozzarella, Monterey Jack, and pepper Jack.
- Don't overfill the enchiladas: Otherwise, they'll be difficult to roll and they'll fall apart when you bake them.
- Bake the enchiladas in a single layer: This will help them cook evenly.
- Serve the enchiladas with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include sour cream, salsa, guacamole, and shredded lettuce.
