Chicken, cheese and enchilada sauce is a winning combination in our second Prizewinning Plate!
Velva sent in this recipe for her Creamy Chicken Rollups and we immediately fell in love. Super simple to make, and great for dinner or reheating the next day for lunch, what’s not to love.
Dig in, y’all!

The recipe does not specify flour or corn tortillas? I will use corn as usual and I am sure they will be great!

I love reading about your family and seeing your pictures. I respect the fact that you are teaching your son's family values because so much of that seems to be going by the wayside anymore..maybe someday we will meet and by that time your son's may even have their own cooking show.lol..wishing you lots and lots of love from this country girl's kitchen to Brooke Deen's kitchen of love.
