Queso Enchiladas

We've got a lot of love for Mexican food in this house. Any type of Mexican food- we're not choosy. Last week, our friend, Brooke, brought over some white queso dip made with Velveeta Queso Blanco. Whaaat?! Didn't know such a thing existed. Life got even better right then. It IS the little things that should make a person happy, right? Anyway, I'll quit justifying my love for this block of heaven. These enchiladas can be made with beef or chicken. Or, be like me and make both to suit each person's tastes... The directions are the same for both except for browning the hamburger vs. baking/boiling and shredding the chicken breasts.

-1 lb. ground beef or 3 chicken breasts
-1 can cream of chicken soup
-1 can red enchilada sauce
-1/2 c. shredded Pepper Jack cheese
-2 T. or half of a packet of taco seasoning
-10 oz. Queso Blanco Velveeta cheese
-1/2 c. sour cream
-splash of milk
-6 burrito size tortillas
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brown hamburger and drain grease, if any. Stir in cream of chicken soup, enchilada sauce, taco seasoning, and pepper jack cheese. Spoon evenly into each tortilla. Roll up (long side, ends, roll). These are meaty little things, by the way! Place in a 9X13 pan. Cut velveeta into chunks and put in a medium sauce pan, along with the sour cream. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently. Once cheese is just about melted, add a little milk to make it just a little thinner. Pour cheese sauce over tortillas. Bake for about 10 minutes. At this point, you're not really cooking anything- It's just to let the cheese sauce seep into all the cracks and for all the flavors to really come together. Enjoy this lip smackin' cheesiness!

This is mine with chicken. Austin had the beef ones.

If you are making these for a crowd and you're not in a hurry (what's that like?), you can put them in the oven set at its lowest temperature just to keep them warm.
