Summer Enchiladas:
8 chicken tenders
2 medium-sized zucchini
1 medium-sized summer squash
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 cup instant brown rice, cooked
4 cups cheddar cheese
2 cans (10 oz) green enchilada sauce
Tortillas
Sour cream
Cherry tomatoes
Cut the thawed chicken into cubes. Place in a skillet with olive oil, fresh black pepper and garlic powder, to taste. Begin cooking on medium heat.
Chop the veggies into small pieces and add to the chicken. Also add 1/4 cup of water to steam the veggies. Cover and simmer until chicken is cooked through and veggies are soft.
Meanwhile, cook the rice. When finsihed, add to the skillet. Also add one can of the enchilada sauce.
Heat your tortillas for 15 seconds in the microwave; this makes them soft and easier to roll. You can use any type of tortillas (flour, wheat, whatever suits your fancy), but I like to use low-carb wheat tortillas. Spoon two heaping wooden-spoonfuls in a line down the center of the tortilla. Cover with a handful of cheese. Half the cheese (2 cups) should be left after filling the tortillas.
Pour a 1/4 of the enchilada sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 pan and spread evenly. Place the tortillas fold side down in the pan and pack them tightly.
Cover the tortilla rolls with the remaining enchilada sauce. Cover with the remaining 2 cups of cheese.
To serve, place on a plate and spoon sour cream on top. Cut up the cherry tomatoes and sprinkle over the sour cream. Enjoy!
