We though these were rather bland! I even added cumin for extra zip. Missing something...

This is a very TASTY recipe. I also used low fat cottage cheese and sour cream. Shared the results with some of my friends who are die hard heavy Mexican food eaters and loved this light version of enchiladas. I will surely be making this one again.
