Gluten-Free Microwave Enchiladas
You are hungry, there is a toddler hanging on to your leg and crying, the rest of the family is cranky, and it is dinner-time.
We've all been there, super short on time but somehow we still have to pull out a delicious and healthy meal for our family.
When that is where I am, I love making these enchiladas.
If you have some bottled or canned gluten-free enchilada sauce on hand it really only takes 10 minutes to make this dish.
If you are making your own enchilada sauce it will take an extra 5-10 minutes, depending on how many times aforementioned toddler interrupts you.
I try to always have the ingredients for these enchiladas on hand (some already cooked chicken in the fridge or freezer, enchilada sauce or at least the ingredients to make it, and some cheese.)
You can also try layering these enchiladas lasagna style if that is easier for you.
Basically all you have to do is throw everything in a glass baking dish (preferably in an organized fashion) and toss it in the microwave until it is all hot and bubbly.
Not to mention, these are delicious, my husband loves them, and my family is always excited when I make them for dinner.
MOM to the RESCUE!
Tips and Tricks:
- If you use a canned or bottled sauce make sure that it is gluten-free, many are thickened with wheat flour. You can also make your own, using your own recipe or mine, or even use salsa.
- Next time you have leftover cooked chicken shred or chop some up and pop it in the freezer, all ready for your next rushed family dinner. You could also fill with beans or whatever meat you love and have on hand (shredded beef, ground beef, pulled pork, etc.)
- Feel free to add some cilantro if you have it on hand. I love cilantro and about half the time I have some laying around, which is why I threw it in these bubbly enchiladas.
