Ingredients (serves 8)
- 10 oz. can of low-sodium cream of chicken soup
- 15 oz. can of enchilada sauce
- ½ cup of Greek yogurt
- 2 cups of cooked chicken, shredded
- 4 oz. can of diced green chilies
- 12 6-inch tortillas
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 2 cups diced tomato
- 2 cans of salsa (optional)
Directions
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the cream of chicken soup, ¼ cup of green enchilada sauce, and ⅓ cup plus 1 tbsp. of the plain Greek yogurt. Add to the mix the chicken and diced green chilies. Mix until the ingredients are combined.
- Evenly spread ¼ cup of the enchilada sauce in an 8x8 baking pan. Cut the tortillas in half. Make two layers of the following: 6 halves of corn tortillas and top with ⅓ of the chicken mixture and ⅓ cup of the enchilada sauce.
- Top the 2nd layer with 1½ cups of shredded cheddar cheese and then top with 6 tortilla halves and then the remaining chicken and ⅓ cup of enchilada sauce. Cover with the remaining tortillas and then the last of the enchilada sauce. Sprinkle with ½ cup of shredded cheese.
- Bake for 25 minutes. The cheese should be melted and the casserole should be bubbling. Remove it from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes before cutting.
- Serve each plate with ⅛ of the casserole topped with baby spinach, diced tomato, and salsa (optional), alongside a serving of your favorite fruit.
