Enchiladas with Sour Cream Salsa Verde Sauce

I love enchiladas. Love, love, LOVE enchiladas! Really, I do. They taste so good and they're extremely easy to make. So simple and flavorful. Enchiladas are an easy way to use up leftover chicken or beef and you can throw in any filler (veggies, rice, cheese) and whip up your own sauce with basic ingredients. Awesome, right? I look in the fridge to see what I have on hand and can effortlessly whip up a quick, delicious dinner. I'm telling you...enchiladas are ridiculously easy and a hit with everyone.

This is my favorite sauce to date.

MMMMmmmmm.....
