Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 13 x 9 baking dish with cooking spray. Prepare the zucchini. If you have a kitchen aid stand mixer and the super veggie tool, use that to make your “tortillas”.

Transfer vegetables to a bowl and stir in chicken. Add sour cream and ½ cup of the cheese and stir to combine.

To fill the enchiladas, place four strips of zucchini lengthwise so that they overlap. Add chicken mixture on top, Roll up from one side and carefully transfer to the baking dish.

Top with enchilada sauce, and sprinkle with remaining cheese.

Bake for 20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the dish is heated through.
