Cool & Serve: Let the enchiladas cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish as desired and serve with Spanish-style rice.
For a spicier kick, use a hotter green taco sauce or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken mixture.
Feel free to substitute the cream of mushroom soup with cream of chicken or celery for a different flavor profile.
If you don't have roasted chicken breasts, rotisserie chicken works great as a shortcut.
Consider adding a layer of refried beans to the tortillas for extra heartiness.
If you are preparing for vegetarian, try to replace the chicken with black beans and corns.
