Background
My mom has been making my favorite enchilada recipe for years – it was often the recipe I requested for my birthday dinner! I loved the flavors of the original enchilada recipe that I used them as flavor inspiration for this dip. Enjoy!
Step-by-step
- Preheat your oven to 325.
- Prep your greens: wash and dry your cilantro and your green onions. Chop them into fine pieces. Place in prep bowl and set aside.
- Add condensed soup, sour cream, and 1 ½ cups of your cheese. Mix to combine.
- Using your spatula, spread your dip evenly into your baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
- Bake 30 minutes (until you begin to see small bubbles on the sides of the dish).
Serve with your favorite chips and enjoy!
This recipe can be made 1 day in advance; leftovers last well in the fridge for 3 days.
