Slow-Cooked Enchilada Dinner image

This layered Southwestern meal just can't be beat. It gets its spicy flavor from green chilies, chili powder and cumin. Using a slow cooker liner inside of the cooker makes it easier to lift and remove the meal so it can be cut into individual wedges. -Judy Ragsdale, Queen City, Texas
