What is a great side dish to serve with chicken enchiladas?

try a nice side salad with a lime /cilantro dressing so it still has that ethnic appeal. When I make enchiladas I usually make a salad because rice/ beans and enchiladas makes a heavy meal.

Rice and beans. Updated: 6/18/08 Oh, I thought of the other thing I make that is really good. Black bean salad. That way you don't need to have any other kind of beans. I use black beans, some Mexican corn, because it has the tomatoes and all in it, some cilantro, basically anything you would add to a salsa or Guacamole. Mix it together and eat it chilled. I experiment with mine everytime I make it so I can't give you an exact recipe.
