Closet Cooking

Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Chicken Enchilada Dip

[heart_this] · Feb 2, 2014 · 10 Comments

Chicken Enchilada Dip

A quick, easy and tasty cheesy chicken enchilada dip that is perfect for game day snacking!

It looks like I have the time to share one final recipe idea for watching the big game today, a cheesy chicken enchilada dip! This dip is super easy to make and it starts out with chicken and a tasty homemade enchilada sauce, though you could use store bought to save some time. You can fill this dip out with your favourite enchilada fillings and I like to go with some healthier ingredients including corn and beans before moving on to plenty of cheese! You simply mix all of the ingredient, bake until the cheese has melted and then it’s time to dig in with tortilla chips, crackers bread or your favourite scooping items.

Just look at all of that melted cheese dripping over the sides!

    I see you cooked this in an oven safe bowl, how large was it? Would a pie dish work?
