My best friend made a dip a long time ago with cream cheese mixed with salsa, cold! But she made me try it! ("shut up you big baby, taste it!" Lol!) The flavor was awesome! So I thought what if you put taco flavored chicken in it? Tried that as a dip, too! yum! So I'd never made enchiladas before, but I knew I liked that so, that is where this recipe came from!
