I like to top this wonderful meatless meal with lettuce and serve it with extra picante sauce. It's quick, easy, filled with fresh flavor and definitely satisfying! Lesley Tragesser - Charleston, Missouri

My family loved this recipe. Even my 3 yr old had some. What a great way to get spinach and broccoli into a toddler. We used whole wheat tortillia insted of the flour ones.

Excellent! We added pepperjack on top for a little extra flavor and chicken in the mix as well. We seasoned the chicken with a little bit of cajun and creole seasoning. We like our food spicy, so if you do too this is a good way to make it! We loved this!

I have to admit I was skeptical, but these were amazing! I like a little more spice, so we garnished with some hot pepper sauce.

I made these and they are GREAT! My husband even like them. He said he could eat them once a week. Make them if you like broccoli and spinach. you wont be disappointed!

My friend recommended this recipe to me, but I have to say that it is one of the worst things I've ever made (and I love this magazine and make lots of meals from it). The broccoli and cottage cheese just do not belong with the Mexican flavors.
