- 1 large can of red enchilada sauce

Optional toppings

Instructions
- Spread walnuts out on a baking sheet and roast in the oven, checking them every couple of minutes to remove them as soon as they start to brown.
- Add all but a large handful of cheese, the chicken, the walnuts, half of the olives, and half of the green onions in a large mixing bowl.
- Add enough enchilada sauce to bind it all together with flavor.
- Coat the bottom of your baking dish with enchilada sauce to keep things from sticking.
- Stuff your tortillas with the mix, roll them up, and line them up tight in a baking dish.
- Cover with a layer of enchilada sauce and more shredded cheese.
- Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling.
- Serve with more cheese, sauce, and a mix of tomatoes and avocado covered in lime juice, with a dollop of sour cream.
Notes
- You can simply make a casserole out of this by layering sauce, flat tortillas, chicken-cheese mix, etc. until your pan is full.
