Green Enchiladas with Chicken and Kale

My family loves tacos. Like LOOOOVES tacos. Sophia seriously pounded a burrito-sized soft taco and a hard shell taco just last night. And my husband inhaled his before I had even put the finishing touches on my taco salad. But I don't really share their love of Tacos, but we have them every week. Except for last week I wanted to try something new, so I made enchiladas instead (I almost had a revolt on my hands.) Until everyone tasted them and they got the stamp of approval. They were pretty darn good, if you ask me. I ended up overhauling a recipe from the October 2013 Rachel Ray Magazine. I changed pretty much everything from the tortillas to the filling to the sauce. And in my opinion I changed them for the better. Here's my version: Green Enchiladas with Chicken and Kale

1lb chicken breast, cooked and shredded

1 can pinto beans drained

1/2 can corn

1 cup cooked white rice

2-3 cups kale, washed and chopped

8oz Stonyfield Farm Plain Greek Yogurt

1 cup monterey jack cheese (or more if you like it cheesier)

1/2 cup feta cheese

1 tsp cumin

salt and pepper to taste

1 1/2 cup salsa verde

1/2 cup Stonyfield Farm Whole Milk

6-8 Large Flour or corn tortillas

1. Place chicken breast in crockpot on high for 3-4 hours until done. (I did not add any liquid)

2. Preheat oven to 350.

3. When chicken is cooked shred into a large bowl. Then add: beans, corn, white rice, kale, greek yogurt, 1/2 cup of monterey jack cheese, feta cheese, cumin and salt/pepper. Mix thoroughly.

4. Mix salsa verde and whole milk together. Set aside.

5. Place tortilla in a 9x11 baking pan, fill with mixture. Roll tightly and place seam side down, repeat until you have used all the filling mixture and filled the baking dish.
