I am so glad you’re here.

I need someone to share this Chicken Enchilada with.

You see sis brought too many tortillas than what she needs and rather than let it go to waste, I was assigned to decided to make it into Chicken Enchilada.

Now, I have too many Chicken Enchilada than I could ever eat.

So go ahead, grab that other fork and start munching….if you get thirsty, you can just grab that other glass right there.

I’m going to tell you a secret but don’t tell anyone, okay?

It’s actually my first time to make this dish and I was a little scared of how it might turn out.

I was thinking maybe it was better off making those wholewheat tortillas into glass coasters…heehee.

But I’m happy I made this, it’s a little salty but it turned out well..

There are lots of versions of this dish, I made the easiest I could find..hee.
