Kraft understands that everyone wants easy dinners this time of year and to help they have a range of products designed to make easy week night meals. I used one of the new Kraft Recipe Maker kits to make a quick and delicious dinner for my family, Layered Chicken and Black Bean Enchiladas.
I found the Kraft Recipe Makers Verde Chicken Enchilada Kit at Target, and was planning to make Chicken Enchiladas. Then I remembered that enchiladas can be fussy to make, because you have to roll everything up in the tortillas, and mine always fall apart! Maybe I don’t make them correctly, but I can never seem to get them to turn out neat. So I decided if everything was going to fall apart anyway I’d just layer the ingredients in a casserole dish, because that is less work.
I basically used the recipe on the back of the box, except I replaced a cup of the chicken with 1 cup of black beans and layered the ingredients instead of rolling them. I put the meal together in the afternoon and refrigerated it until it was time to bake it. I like meals that let me do all the prep ahead of time, when it is convenient for me. The Layered Enchiladas were very tasty, and make a perfect quick weeknight meal.
