"I love Salmon, and the health benefits are endless. Grilled, baked, broiled, smoked, on a salad, in a sandwich, or caught with my two front teeth right out of the stream, hands tied behind my back. Ok, maybe that last part never happened, but it doesn’t mean I’ll never try! Below is a Salmon recipe that even the most finicky fish eaters will enjoy!

Place tortillas in cream mixture and let soak for a few minutes. Reserve 1-1/2 cups Monterey and a small amount of cilantro. In large bowl, combine all remaining ingredients, salmon last, as not to break it up too much. Pour 1/2-3/4 cup cream mixture in bottom of 9x11 baking dish. Place tortillas in baking dish one at a time, fill w/salmon mixture, roll seam side down and repeat. Pour remaining cream mixture on top, sprinkle with reserved Monterey and cilantro. Cover w/foil and bake in preheated 350-degree oven for 20-25 minutes or until liquid has baked into enchiladas. Uncover and bake an extra 10 minutes to lightly brown cheese.
