4.5.2025 Notes:

1. Forgot to add 400g water when blending so sauce was very thick and extra spicy; little difficult to spread on rolled enchiladas

2. Either work faster, or nuke the chicken/cheese/sauce mix before rolling. Was cold by time I rolled enchiladas up and popped under broiler. ~2 min under broiler + sauce cheese and 2 more min under broiler did not warm center of rolls.

3. If using a Costco rotisserie chicken (~900g chicken after shredding off carcass), DOUBLE the sauce when making and can make 2 batches of sauce/chicken mix to freeze one batch for later defrosting and adding cheese for a 2nd pan batch

4. Used white flour keto tortillas instead of corn tortillas

5. Original recipe said '200g cheese for filling and "a little more to top"...I used half a 2nd bag for topping bringing my total cheese number to ~300g lol
