Chicken-cheese enchiladas with salsa
Mexican food is easy to make at home and its fresh taste makes the effort worthwhile. For this casual main dish, corn tortillas are filled with chicken and mild cheese and baked in a salsa. If you have more filling than you need-or if some falls out during baking-just spoon it over the enchiladas as you serve them.
