Happy Monday! I hope you all enjoy your weekend! With the weather beginning to change, our menu begins to change also. Today’s recipe, Creamy Chicken Enchilada Casserole is a combination of two recipes that I recently stumbled upon that looked delicious. The first is Tiffany’s Grilled Chicken and Cream Cheese Enchiladas and the second is Enchilada Casserole from Taste of Home.

We started with chicken that we roasted last week. We most always roast 2 at a time, this is our 3rd meal so far from the chickens, Buffalo Chicken Bites, Chicken Quesadillas and the Creamy Chicken Enchilada Casserole.

We all enjoyed this casserole and there were plenty of leftovers for lunch the next day.
