For the longest time I’ve been trying to find a recipe for a cream cheese enchilada dish I ate at a restaurant a few years ago and just couldn’t find one that tasted like those incredible enchiladas. So, I decided to try and duplicate it myself. After a few tries I think I’ve come close. Here’s my recipe.
