I think possibly these White Chicken Enchiladas have knocked the classic off its pedestal!

I had salad for dinner and I am munching on carrot sticks as I write this post.

This health kick isnt going to last beyond tomorrow morning at this rate.

I feel my resolve weakening rapidly.

Months and months and months ago, a reader sent me a recipe for White Chicken Enchiladas.

I must admit, I had my doubts.

Made this for dinner the other night, the white sauce is INCREDIBLE!!!! I added extra cheese - because I like my enchiladas EXTRA cheesy!

A sauce made with a sour cream base?

The minute I made it, I fell in love.

I also like to add fresh or canned jalapenos to it which adds a touch of zing and freshness.

I like to throw in corn and scallions for the filling.

Feel free to substitute it with whatever vegetables you had on hand anything diced works!

Ive even made a vegetarian version of this (gasp, shock horror!).

Regular readers will know that meat-free isnt really my thing.

But this White Sauce is so good, I knew that a vegetarian version would rock.

And indeed it did!

I used a mix of black beans, corn and other diced vegetables, and oh boy.

I promise you, I did NOT miss meat.

However, having said that, my favourite is this chicken version.

I like to prepare the Enchiladas but keep the sauce separate.
