Sounds yummy! I don't have instant rice but I do have white rice that would cook up like 1c rice & 2c water…would I still add the 1c enchilada sauce or more/less?? I can never figure out instant–>non-instant proportions in recipes!!
Made this tonight to go with some chicken and cheese enchiladas. It was sooo easy (tired teacher appreciates that) and both my kids loved it! That's saying something because I have two very picky eaters because one child has Autism and the other refuses to eat pork and beef just because she doesn't like it…so anything that everyone eats is a winner in my book! Thanks for sharing and War Eagle!
