Notes

Serve your Stuffed Chili Enchiladas hot from the oven, topped with extra green chiles, cilantro, or even a dollop of sour cream for added flavor. They pair well with a fresh salad or some Mexican rice on the side. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
