--1 can (14.5 oz) creamed corn
--1 cup shredded already-cooked shredded chicken breast
--1 cup baby spinach leaves
--1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
--2 T chopped sliced jalapenos
--1 1/2 cups shredded Mexican Blend
--1 can (28 oz) green enchilada sauce
--2/3 cup sour cream
--corn tortillas
--more shredded cheese


In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded meat, creamed corn, cilantro, spinach leaves, jalapenos, and shredded cheese. Mix. You may need to use your hands to get the spinach leaves really wilty and coated with the creamed corn.

This is your enchilada filling.

Put a corn tortilla out on the counter, and plop a spoon full of filling in the center. Roll into an enchilada shape and put it seam-side down in your crockpot. Repeat until you run out of filling. I used 10 corn tortillas before I ran out. I stacked them to fit.

Either wash your mixing bowl, or get out another. Combine the green sauce with the 2/3 cup of sour cream. This is optional, I guess, but it tastes really good.

Pour the sauce on top of your enchiladas. Add a few handfuls of shredded cheese for good measure.

Cover and cook on high for 2-4 hours, or on low for 5-7.

Let stand for 20 minutes with the lid off before cutting into.

I did it on high for that reason.

You could totally do this in the oven, I would bake at 350 for about 30-35 minutes

not to me.

I think old el paso marks their green sauce "mild" "medium" and "hot"
