Back to School sales are already in full swing! I know it feels like summer just started but, like Christmas, stores always want to get started as soon as they can. There are lots of ways to save and some huge deals you can get, so join in as we discuss everything back to school next Monday night..
Join me Monday at 8:30 pm eastern.
Feel free to bring any other money saving questions you have too!
You can watch and ask questions right here on Southern Savers, or head to facebook and watch/comment there. Whatever is easiest for you.
Right now, you can get the Pyrex Simply Store Glass 14-piece Bakeware Set for $20.97 at Walmart. This is regularly $40!
On a personal note, I love these containers because they are glass. This means they won’t warp or stain, and I can put hot stuff in here without worrying about plastic getting in my food.
This set includes (7) glass containers and (7) lids and has great reviews.
This deal is good for a limited time. Shipping is free for Walmart+ users and on orders $35+.

Looking for a delicious and easy meal the family will love? Try these creamy chicken enchiladas! They’re packed with shredded chicken, black beans, and the secret ingredient: cream cheese.
Use whatever salsa is your favorite or what you have on hand. You can also use rotisserie chicken meat to make it easier. This is a favorite of mine to make when a family needs a meal!
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/2 cup corn kernels
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1/2 to 3/4 cup chicken broth (or water)
- 1/2 block cream cheese
- 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken
- 1 jar salsa
- 10 standard size tortillas
- 2 cups shredded cheese
Directions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil along with the onions, black beans, and corn. Cook until the onions are translucent. Stir in the taco seasoning and cook until fragrant.
- Starting with 1/2 cup, stir in the chicken broth. You may need to add more later (you don't want it to be soupy; the broth just keeps things moist). Add the cream cheese and continue stirring until it's fully melted. Stir in the chicken. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Add a thin layer of salsa to the bottom of a large casserole/baking dish (I broke mine up into two smaller baking dishes). The salsa will prevent sticking and give flavor.
- Scoop a few tablespoons of the chicken mixture into a tortilla, roll it up, and place it seam side down into the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Spread the remaining salsa over the top of the rolled tortillas. Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the whole top.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until everything is hot and bubbly and the shredded cheese is golden.
