Footnotes

  • Success: If enchiladas are done before guests are ready, cover baking dishes with foil and hold in 200 degrees F oven for up to 30 minutes.
  • Serve-With: Have additional sour cream, chopped cilantro or sliced ripe olives available so guests can top their enchiladas to their liking.

This recipe is really delicious. My family can be very picky, and when I made it for them, they all loved it. Very easy. I improvised and used fresh bell peppers instead of out of the can.
