Today, I’m excited to share with you a family favorite that’s perfect for busy weeknights: Slow Cooker Cream Cheese Enchiladas. This recipe came into my repertoire during hectic days at the office when there was barely time to breathe, let alone cook! The slow cooker does most of the heavy lifting, transforming simple ingredients into comforting, cheesy enchiladas that will make you feel like you’re dining at your favorite Mexican restaurant. Plus, who doesn’t love coming home to the aroma of a ready-made meal?
These enchiladas are wonderful with a side of Spanish rice or a fresh, zesty cilantro-lime salad. For a heartier meal, add some refried beans or a corn salsa on the side. And don’t forget the tortilla chips with guacamole – they’re perfect for scooping up any extra sauce!
