I made this with 1 can (12.5 oz) of Swanson's white premium chunk chicken breast. It shreds easily. This is about 1.5 cups. The recipe calls for 2 cups, but I had plenty of chicken to fill all 10 tortillas. I used a grocery store brand of chicken enchilada soup because I couldn't find Progresso. Other than those modifications I followed the rest of the recipe as written. It was so cheesy and delicious. Super easy and so quick. I will definitely make this again.

Delicious! My family loved it and so did I. The soup was a little hard to find though. Every time I visited a different store I made sure to look for this soup without any luck until I found it at Walmart Neighborhood Market. I didn't use the called for enchilada sauce, I just used whatever brand I had in my pantry. They were so good and cheesy, I will definitely be making these again.
