SPINACH ENCHILADAS VERDE
This is super simple, and even hard-core Texan meat eaters who have never eaten a vegetable in their lives like it. You can substitute yogurt for the sour cream if you want a lighter version.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a small bowl, stir together half of the sour cream and the green salsa. Spread enough to coat the bottom into a 9x13 inch baking dish. On each tortilla, spread a small amount of the salsa and sour cream in the center. Lay a small handful of spinach over that, and sprinkle with Monterey Jack cheese. Roll up, secure with a toothpick and place into the baking dish. When all of the tortillas are in the pan, pour the remaining salsa over the top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until the enchiladas are browned and heated through.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Combine chicken, spinach, 2 Tbsp of taco seasoning, cumin, garlic powder, and red onion in a large bowl. Season with pepper and taste. Add additional taco seasoning, if desired. Season with salt as needed.
- In a separate small bowl, combine sour cream and chili verde salsa. Taste, and season with salt, pepper, taco seasoning and/or cumin as desired.
- Smear approximately 1/4 cup of the creamy salsa mixture all over the bottom of a 9×13 glass baking dish. Mix approximately 1/2 cup of the creamy salsa into the chicken and spinach mixture. Add more creamy salsa, 1 tablespoon at a time, if the mixture is dry. You want it to be a moist mixture, but not goopy and saturated.
- Measure 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture into the center of a tortilla and roll up. Place tortilla at one end of the baking dish, seam down. Repeat with remaining tortillas and chicken mixture.
- Spread the remaining creamy salsa mixture over the enchiladas. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and bake in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Fill a large pot 3/4 full with water and bring to a boil. Add chicken and season with salt and black pepper. Cook until chicken is no longer pink inside, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring 1 cup water to a boil in a medium-sized pot. Add tomatillos, serrano pepper, and garlic. Boil for 12 minutes.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Place poblano peppers in a resealable plastic bag and add 1 tablespoon oil. Toss to coat. Transfer peppers to the hot skillet and roast until dark brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Return roasted peppers to the resealable bag and seal. Set aside to steam for 10 minutes. Take out peppers from the bag; remove and discard skins and stems.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer tomatillos, serrano peppers, garlic, and 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid to a blender. Add onion, cilantro, lime juice, roasted poblano peppers, salt, and pepper to the blender. Liquefy into a smooth sauce.
- Remove chicken from the water in the pot and shred using a fork.
- Heat 1/2 cup oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry tortillas in the hot oil until softened, about 5 seconds on each side. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Pour 1/2 the sauce from the blender into the bottom of a long glass baking pan. Roll a portion of chicken mixture and some shredded queso cheese on a tortilla, roll up, and place in the pan. Repeat with remaining tortillas, chicken mixture, and queso cheese. Cover enchiladas with remaining sauce. Use a spoon to add crema in a zigzag design on top. Top everything with remaining queso cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cheese starts to brown, about 20 minutes.

Steps:
- In a saucepan, combine chicken breast with chicken broth, one quarter onion, a clove of garlic, and 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil, and then boil for 20 minutes. Reserve broth, set chicken aside to cool, and discard onion and garlic. When cool enough to handle, shred chicken with your hands.
- Place tomatillos and serrano chiles in a pot with water, enough to cover them. Bring to boil, and continue boiling until tomatillos turn a different shade of green (from bright green to a dull, army green). Strain tomatillos and chiles, and place in a blender with another quarter piece of onion, 1 clove garlic, and a pinch of salt. Pour in reserved chicken broth, so that liquid just covers the veggies in the blender by about an inch. Blend all ingredients until they are completely pureed. Pour salsa in a medium saucepan, and bring to a low boil.
- Pour oil in a frying pan, and allow to get very hot. Slightly fry tortillas one by one in hot oil, setting each on a paper towel afterwards to soak some of the oil. Finally, dip slightly fried tortillas in low-boiling green salsa, until tortillas become soft again. Place on plates, 3 per person.
- Fill or top tortillas with shredded chicken, then extra green sauce. Top with crumbled cheese, chopped onion, and chopped cilantro.

SPINACH ENCHILADAS
I wasn't even a huge fan of enchiladas before I ate these! The spinach and blend of cheeses give this dish a wonderful flavor. Substitute salsa in place of the enchilada sauce for a different twist! It's just as great!

SALSA VERDE ENCHILADAS
The lime juice really helps to perk up the flavor of these mild enchiladas. If you want them to be spicier you can serve them with hot sauce or chopped jalapenos on the side. Or if you can find it, you can use the Herdez brand salsa verde hot instead of mild. The recipe originated from Good Housekeeping magazine, but I have made changes to suit my family.

- Preheat the oven to 350F and set a 9×13″ casserole dish aside. Make the Salsa Verde, if you haven’t already.
- heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat (for oil free, use 1/4 cup of water and add more as necessary, to prevent sticking). Add the onion to the pan and sauté for 3 minutes, until fragrant and translucent. Add the mushrooms, corn, and jalapeño and sauté for another 3-5 minutes, until the mushrooms start to brown. Then, add the garlic, chili powder, cumin, and a pinch of salt to the pan; sauté for 1 minute, then add in the baby spinach. Cook until the spinach has wilted, then remove from the heat and set aside.
- Wrap the tortillas in a wet (but not dripping) clean dish towel (or paper towels) and place on a plate. Microwave for 1 minute, to soften the tortillas. Carefully remove the tortillas from the microwave – they will be very hot.
- Pour 1 cup of Salsa Verde onto the bottom of the casserole dish and spread around evenly. Remove 1 tortilla from the wet towel and place on a clean surface; carefully spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of filling into the center of the tortilla and use clean hands to form it into a long “line” – be careful not to overstuff! Roll the tortilla away from you, then place it into the casserole dish, fold side down. Repeat with the remaining tortillas; be sure to pack them tightly into the casserole dish.
