52 flour tortillas
2 1/4 gallon cooked diced chicken (do this a day or two ahead)
7 2/3 quarts condensed cream of chicken soup
2 7/8 quarts shredded cheddar
17 cans of enchilada sauce

Place 1 cup of cream of celery soup in the bottom of a 9x13 pan and spread to moisten the bottom layer. Tear or cut tortillas into strips for 9x13 pan. Place 1/2 the tortilla strips on the bottom layer of the pan. Layer 1/2 the chicken on the tortillas. Pour 1/2 the soup over the chicken. Repeat the layers, ending with the sauce. Sprinkle cheese over the top. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes.

Good luck

Thanks so much for sharing this recipe Kathy - I made this last night (but not for 70 people of course!) and the family loved it. I used corn tortillas though, and put some cheese in between the layers too, but overall this is the simplest enchilada recipe I have ever made and tasty too! A good weeknight shortcut recipe. Sent you a quick rep!
