    These were so good! I ended up making them as “flautas” because I’m not a fan of the texture of enchiladas. So I basically just omitted the enchilada sauce and cheese on top. My husband ate one and agreed they need to be a regular recipe. I plan to make a double batch and freeze them so I can take 1 or 2 out and air fry as needed.

    My husband and I loved these, and the teens ate them too! I’m not much of a measurer or a recipe follower, so I just used a whole pack of boneless skinless thighs to shred (instant pot the night before) but I didn’t weigh them, and then made up the sauce and mostly followed the rest of the instructions using Josephs flax, oat and whole wheat wraps. I put cheese inside, but not on top, and shook up the green salsa with a little bit of sour cream rather than milk. Great recipe!!
