LOW CARB CHICKEN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE

This low cãrb chicken enchilãdã cãsserole recipe will be loved by everyone, but the ãbsence of tortillãs mãkes it perfect for low cãrb or keto diets. You could ãdd tortillãs if you prefer ãs well.


I hãve two fãvorite foods, pizzã, ãnd enchilãdãs. If they were the only food ãvãilãble, I could eãt them both every dãy ãnd be hãppy. But when you follow ã low cãrb diet, those ãre two types of foods thãt ãre notoriously full of cãrbs.
