Cream Cheese and Chicken Enchiladas

Ingredients:
2-3 chicken breasts, shredded {OR rotisserie chicken}
1 {8 oz.} pkg. cream cheese
1 28 oz. can green enchilada sauce
1 can black beans, drained & rinsed
2 cups cooked rice
Tortillas
1-2 cups shredded Monterrey & Colby cheese

Directions:
Cook rice. Cook chicken and shred. (Boil or bake it so there is no need to touch any raw chicken.) Mix the shredded chicken, cream cheese, and 2 cups of the enchilada sauce together.  Spray the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Pour half a cup of the enchilada sauce into the bottom of the baking dish. Layer the rice and beans onto tortillas. Top with chicken mixture. Roll up each of the tortillas and place them in the baking dish seam side down.  Top with 1 cup of the enchilada sauce and 1-2 cups of shredded cheese. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake at 375 for about 25 minutes. Uncover the enchiladas, turn on the broiler, and broil for about 3-5 minutes uncovered or just long enough to brown the cheese.
