I made this last night and it was excellent. It is a keeper. I forgot to get green chili's so I used a few drops of Jalapeno sauce and also added chunky salsa to the meat. I used a can of Mexi-corn instead of the frozen.

This was a great base but we found it not to be spicy enough and we replaced the greens chilies with jalapenos. Also we noticed the enchiladas sticking to the bottom of the pan and the next time we made it we used more sauce on the bottom to prevent this from happening.

This was absolutely wonderful! My husband just loved it and could not stop raving about it. He said he can't wait till I make it again. We added on top after it was cooked lettuce, tomato, black olives, sour cream and salsa. It was delicious.
