  1. jenv71 Says:

    This is a great recipe. Really fills you up and it tastes wonderful

  2. Jenny S Says:

    Easy, and every tasty. Added a small can of chilies, felt it needed a little pep, was a little bland. Also added cumin.

  3. Suzy Says:

    WAY too dry. Bland as well. Family requested I never fix again.

  4. Amy Says:

    This was a little dry, so the next time I made it I added more tomatoes and a little more tomato sauce. With the extra sauce it is very good.

  5. Meg Says:

    Fantastic! Very filling and tasty. Will try adding jalapenos next time per suggestion from others. I adjusted the temperature during the last few minutes of cooking, and I used fewer tortillas. That may be why mine didn’t turn out to be as dry as others. It’s definitely worth trying!

  6. tracy Says:

    I made this last night and it was awesome! I took the advice of the people here and added more tomates at the outset. I also added some cayenne pepper and a touch of tumeric to take away from the strong flavor of the cumin. We loved it!

  7. Samantha Says:

    I cut the number of tortillas in a layer from four to two and used a 15-oz. can of chopped tomatoes. Not dry at all, filling, and good enough for seconds! Makes great leftovers, too.

  8. Jeanette Says:

    This made a good enchilada meal!

    I did make a few changes……

    Instead of regular can of tomatoes I used Hunts fire roasted tomatoes and instead of just tomato sauce I used enchilada sauce.

    I rolled them up like enchiladas instead of just laying the tortillas out flat.

    Very Tasty!

    Next time I will try it adding green chiles.
