Chicken Spinach Enchiladas

I love this recipe because it’s a way of hiding spinach in a kid-friendly Mexican enchilada if you have a kid who won’t eat any green vegetables. The garlic & cheese overpowers the spinach but the good news is this recipe really tastes good, too. The recipe is excellent as a leftover and can be warmed up easily in the microwave. In addition, you can cut the recipe in half as well before you cook it. If you want to lower the fat and calories in this recipe you can also use fat free cream cheese. You can use canned chicken breast or you can poach your chicken which is very easy to do.
