These are wonderful. They're a new family favorite. We've even played with the recipie a little, substituting green enchilada sauce for the salsa, and adding some reduced fat refried beans before we roll them up. Delicious!

This is sweeter than the recipe I normally use to make enchiladas; not better, just different. Used 12 corn tortillas that I softened by frying in oil instead of the flour tortillas. We would have preferred less sour cream and salsa mixture; it was a little strong. Only used about 1 1/4 cups of cheese. Added some leftover spinach into the chicken mixture, which added nice color. Served with refried beans and a salad.

We loved this recipe! Several of my co-workers even asked about it when I brought the leftovers for my lunch the next day!

Loved these. There are only 2 of us so I put them in two 8 x 8 pans and will freeze one. So easy to make.
