We went camping this past week and this time we decided to vary the hot dog, sandwiches, hot dog routine and I tried a new recipe. This was nice because the ingredients were things I normally have on hand. I did have to buy sour cream, but I'm thinking of investing in powdered sour cream, at least for baking. Anyone have any suggestions on what brand to buy?
I found the original recipe on the Internet on a site called grouprecipes.com and modified it a bit.
Ingredients
2 pints, canned chicken (the original called for 1 chicken, boiled and boned)
1 - 2 cups chicken broth (I just used the juice from my canned chicken).
1 small can chopped green chilies
1 can red or green enchilada sauce (I used red)
2 cans cream of chicken soup (the original used 1 can cream or chicken, 1 can cream of mushroom, but because my family complained I quit storing cream or mushroom).
1 cup sour cream
dash of onion powder (I forgot it and it was still good so . . . .)
1 lb. grated cheese ( I used some from my freezer that was a pizza blend - I think - cheddar and mozzarella)
* word to the wise - when freezing grated cheese store in sandwich or quart sized baggies not gallon sized ones, unless you are going to freeze it on a pan and then put it in the baggies.
12 flour tortillas.
Combine first 7 ingredients and 1/2 the cheese in a pan and heat until the cheese melts/ ( I did this but I'm not sure it's necessary, especially if you are adapting this for a regular oven.)
Layer tortillas, cream mixture and cheese, repeat until you use all of the tortillas.
I did 3 tortillas, mix, cheese, 3 tortillas, mix, cheese etc. ending with tortillas and just cheese for the top layer because I like crunchy tortillas.
I used a dutch oven liner for the first time and LOVED it, no clean up!
Bake 30 minutes with about 10 coals on the bottom and 12 on top (350 degrees).

I was not in charge of the coals so I think we used more. The top was nice and crispy though and most loved it. (I have picky kids so if everyone loved it I would be in shock). We ate it with corn chips, also from food storage.
