Notes

To store leftovers, let the enchiladas cool down to room temperature. Then, cover them tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, or place them in an airtight container. They can be kept in the refrigerator for up to three days. For longer storage, you can freeze them for up to three months. If you have more leftover Thanksgiving ingredients, feel free to add them, such as stuffing or veggies.
