Oh that’s so awesome🌝 A new time in your life to explore…go for it! I am well…a little bit of stress due to this hurricane. Sweet Blessings!
These are so yummy! It’ll be nice to make them on my own!
Thank you! Only 5 ingredients!
One of my favorites!
It was so easy with the leftover chicken.
Yum, Yum! Now that it’s cooled off here, I can turn the oven back on and start making more food! Enchiladas are a fav. around here.
Here too! My husband was just asking when I was making this again. Next time I want to try it with the green sauce. Thanks!
Great dish and does not require a lot of time to prepare it. Everyone likes tortilla, young people are also eager to eat such a casserole.
Regards
Thanks so much! ❤💕
Looks so good!💙
Thanks Jess!
Your instructions are clear and easy to understand. Thank you for posting these recipes with photos. I must try this recipe 😋🥂
Awwww thank you Ellie!
That’s too much oil and cheese for me! But it is a good looking dish! God bless! 🙂
Thanks and God bless you too Tammy!
You’re most welcome! 🙂 thank you!
Yum, only put a good dollop of sour cream on top. I love my sour cream on Mexican.
Great idea I never thought of that Chris! Thanks!
I’ve just re-read my original comment. I left out an, ‘I’d’ between only and put. Apologies for the comment reading like I was telling you what to do. You always do such a great job with your recipes. Just because I’m a sour cream addict doesn’t mean everyone else is.
I didn’t take it like that Chris! I have already told others to add sour cream. My husband and I just shook our heads because we didn’t think of it and I have a huge container of sour cream in the refrigerator! I appreciate any and all suggestions!
Mouthwatering 🙂
Thanks!
Thanks!
That’s a mighty tasty-looking dish there Diane- I love anything with melted cheese.
Thank you Linda! One of my other followers said it needed sour cream on top….I never ever gave that a thought. What a great idea!
Yes, that would be tasty – next time you’ll have to try it.
We love enchiladas. I make an enchilada casserole that is super yummy too. 🙂
Oh that sounds wonderful. Is it on your site and can you send me the link to the recipe?
I always appreciate when people show pictures of the ingredients!!! Thank you! Looks like Old El Paso enchilada sauce. What kind of taco sauce? Is that Old El Paso, too?
I live and die for enchiladas so I’ve gotta try these. Thanks!
The taco sauce is Ortega, my favorite. I agree, enchiladas are fabulous. Thank you for your nice comment!
Ohhhhh thank you!!! I have Ortega Taco Sauce in my fridge so I think I might have everything I need to make your recipe! So excited!! Thanks for replying.
You’re welcome!
Didn’t work out to make it this week, but soon!!!!
