They were good, but I agree that they needed more heat and less liquid. I got left with a pot full of sauce, that I may have to find something else to cook it with. Or freeze it and use it for future use. Tip: make sure that the tortillas are heated enough to where they won't break with the sauce. We ended up having to use tortilla chips to eat

This recipe serves 14, but calls for 10 tortillas. Huh? - better hope no more than one kid is served or there will be a wailing going on.
