Chicken Enchilada Pasta

The same day the bf sent me the pork & bean casserole recipe, he sent me this chicken enchilada pasta recipe. I bookmarked it for later use since I'm pretty much always craving something Mexican.

The bf was sold when he realized it had crunched up Doritos on top!

Again, I pretty much followed the recipe. After running the idea past my mom, I decided to cook small shell-shaped pasta and mix it all up rather than stuffing manicotti-sized shells (because I was feeling lazy). Honestly, the mixture was so thick that I had to add some extra enchilada sauce and some Rotel tomatoes to loosen it up. It would probably be better stuffed, but small shells worked fine if you're feeling lazy.

I served it with sour cream, guacamole, and a black bean and corn salad (1 can black beans rinsed and drained, 2 bags of frozen sweet corn kernels, 1 chopped up bell pepper, Rotel, salt, pepper, lime, and extra taco seasoning from the casserole).  We enjoyed it, but it's too similar to our Mexi Mix and we much, much prefer Mexi Mix.

Oops, I started eating and then remembered to take a picture! :)
