You would NEVER think this is a light dish! At only about 150 calories per enchilada, you can't beat this recipe. It calls for shredded chicken... you can cook the chicken however you want before you shred it... I just boiled it because I was kind of short on time. This recipe comes from Eat Yourself Skinny and she's got tons of awesome, healthy recipes over there.
