Made this last nite and it was really good. Will use corn tortillas or Wheat grain tortillas the next time. I don't like the flour tortillas as the tend to swell up when cooking in the oven. Will make this again. My husband loved this. I used all the sauce too.

These are so good. I like my enchiladas with a little more sauce so I used the whole can. I also like extra spice so used all of the green chiles.
