In the center of the "tortilla" place 1/8 of the chicken mixture and roll up each "enchilada". Place seam side down in the baking pan and repeat.

Top enchiladas with remaining salsa, sprinkle evenly with cheddar cheese and olives.

Bake for 15-20 minutes until heated through and cheese has melted. Garnish with chives if desired, serve & enjoy!

I make chicken enchiladas ALL the time. It's my kids favorite. I just use whole wheat tortillas, suck it up and eat the carbs. NOW...........I am going to try this version of the tortilla and see if I like it, if so........that would be awesome.
