Freezer Meals for new Parents!

 

One of my favorite things to do for the kids when they become new parents, is to prep several freezer meals for their families.  I did this recently for Ben and Mandy when they had their new baby.  And I will be doing it soon for Abby and Cole. 😋

One recipe that is easy and freezes well is chicken enchiladas.  

EASY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

For an 8 x 8 pan of enchiladas (2-3 servings)

Dice 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts and brown in a skillet with 1 TBSP of butter.  when meat is cooked add 1 packet of taco seasoning and 2/3 c. water simmer for 10-15 minutes.

Rinse and drain 1 can of black beans.  Mix together 1 can tomato soup, 1 can cream of chicken soup and 1 can mild enchilada sauce.  

On each flour tortilla spread 1 spoon of sauce, add 1-2 spoons of chicken, 1-2 spoons of beans and 1-2 spoons of grated cheddar cheese.  Roll up and lay seam down in a baking dish.  After all enchiladas are rolled top with remaining sauce and grated cheddar.  Cover with foil and freeze.  I write these directions on the foil before freezing.

" Chicken Enchiladas - - -Thaw and bake at 350 for 30 minutes"

I usually include a bag of frozen corn and a dessert to complete the meal.

Enjoy the yum!
