Ingredients

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 cup salsa
2 cups chopped cooked chicken breast meat
1 (15.5 ounce) can pinto beans, drained
6 (6 inch) flour tortillas
2 cups shredded Colby-Jack cheese

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Gather all ingredients for easy assembly.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine cream cheese and salsa. Cook and stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended. Stir in the cooked chicken and pinto beans.
Fill each tortilla with the chicken mixture. Roll them up tightly and place them seam-down in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese evenly over the top of the enchiladas.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven until heated through and the cheese is melted, about 30 minutes. Remove foil for the last few minutes if desired to brown the cheese.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious and easy chicken enchiladas!
