Very tasty! I substituted green chile enchilada sauce for the taco sauce. This is a fast, easy recipe that I will come back to time and again...

These were okay but that was way too much garlic & I like garlic more than most people. I think next time I may use just a little garlic powder instead. I also wasn't too crazy about the tomatoes in there once cooked, & the enchiladas kind of fell apart but that's probably because I didn't have the right size corn tortillas (they only had taco size at the store). I think if I make them again I will do them a little differently & have some sour cream with them too. I did add extra cheese & green onion which was fine. BUT - before I cooked them - the filling tasted wonderful (even with too much garlic and the tomatoes) so now I'm trying to figure out what I could do with the filling cold & not baked. Maybe just have on crackers or something. It was really good BEFORE I cooked it, not so much afterward.

I made this recipe last night, and everybody loved it. It was very easy to make. I doubled the recipe, and added a little bit more garlic.
