Chicken Burritos with Enchilada Sauce






This recipe makes about 19-20 burritos!  I rolled, sauced, and baked 10 of the burritos.  The rest of the sauce and burritos were wrapped separately and frozen for later.  


Burrito Ingredients:

1 box of Spanish rice, cooked per box instructions

1 cup chopped onion

1 can 15.5 oz drained pinto beans

1- 8 oz cream cheese, softened

2- 8 oz blocks of shredded pepper jack cheese

1- 8 oz block of shredded colbey jack cheese

1/2 teaspoon salt

4 cups shredded chicken.  I used rotisserie chicken

20 burrito size flour tortillas, warmed in the microwave for ease of wrapping


Burrito Directions:

Stir all ingredients (saving 2 cups of cheese) together and fill each tortilla.  Place in a greased casserole dish.  Make enchilada sauce and pour over the burritos.  Add 2 cups of cheese to the top of the burritos.  Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes.

 

Enchilada Sauce Ingredients:

1 chopped onion

1 clove garlic minced

2- 16 oz cans diced tomatoes, undrained.  I used fire roasted

1- 15 oz can tomato sauce

2- 4 oz can diced green chiles

1 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon dried basil

1/2 teaspoon dried cilantro

1/4 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup sour cream


Enchilada Sauce Directions:

Sautee onion and garlic in a pot.  In a blender, add diced tomatoes and puree.  Add tomato puree, tomato sauce, chiles, and seasonings to pot with the onion and garlic.  Bring to a boil and simmer for an hour.  Stir in sour cream.

Kelsey's Pub and Restaurant Thanksgiving

Kelsey's was one of the few places selling a Thanksgiving for 2 and it was only $75.  It came with turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, stuffing with sausage, green bean casserole gravy, cranberry sauce, and rolls with a honey butter.  I ordered an additional apple pie too.  It was a perfect amount and I managed to get everything reheated ready to eat in 1 hour.
