My Mom said that this was the best meal she had ever had, and everyone else couldn't get enough of them either. These are fabulous burritos--they taste like the sunked burritos from authentic Mexican restuarants. I mixed together the refried beans, the cottage cheese, about 1 cup of water, the chili powder, and 1/2 of a taco seasoning packet, and added that to the sauted onions and garlic. I dipped each whole wheat tortilla into enchilada sauce, filled them with the bean mixture, then pour enchilada sauce all over them. Next, I topped each with a light Mexican blend cheese and black beans (drained and rinsed.. this REALLY added something to the burritos!) Then I baked them... they were great! I served them with Mexican Rice.. I combined the recipes for Mexican Rice III and Mexican Rice I from this site. Everyone keeps asking me to make these again... they are fantastic. You can't go wrong with these!!

My husband liked this more than I did. I found the stuffing bland and the sauce wasn't hearty enough.

My husband felt they needed some ground beef but they couldn't be that bad as he ate 90% of them. Kids & mom loved them. Followed recipe exactly.

I would give the original recipe 3 stars, it's sorta like mush. I'd give my doctored version 5 stars, so I compromised and gave it 4. For my version I kept the enchilada sauce (very yummy) except I skipped the dried onion and sauteed onion first then proceeded as directed with the sauce recipe. For the filling I used a can of rinsed black beans, about a cup and a half of shredded mexi cheese blend, cream cheese and rice. For the rice I was lazy and just cooked minute rice, but used the juice from a can of rotel (plus enough water to cook). I dipped the tortillas into the enchilada sauce, smeared about a tablespoon of cream cheese onto the enchilada, then added the rice, beans and cheese. On top of the enchiladas I put almost a cup of cheese and the rest of the can of rotel. After baking I threw black olives, shredded lettuce and sour cream on top. Can you say YUM?

I usually make enchiladas with corn tortillas but nonetheless, these were yummy and easy as stated! I especially enjoyed the sauce, which I will be using for other recipes! I also kicked these up a notch with some jalapenos. Thanks!

Wow, I'm really disappointed in this one. Particularly since 99% of "Taste of Home" recipes come out great. Here's the main problem: the cottage cheese. I don't know about you, but I personally don't like to see white blobs in my enchilada filling. And I used the smallest curd cottage cheese too. My suggestion is to sub the cottage cheese with sour cream and maybe a little bit of cream cheese too for a little extra oomph. Secondly, as another reviewer pointed out, the filling was quite bland as is. Next time, I'll be sure to add a package of taco seasoning to the filling....Finally, I'm a purist when it comes to enchiladas and only corn tortillas should be used when making them. They are slightly "higher maintenance" if you will, but they really make all the difference! Here's how to do it right: fry each tortilla in a bit of butter (about 1 minute each side) THEN dip into the sauce and fill. Enjoy!

A family hit. My first try at Enchiladas and it turned out great. Some may like to spice it up some with diced Jalipino peppers in the bean mix.

So good!! I make them with Fat Free Refried Beans from this site. I have made them for company a couple of times and always think there will be leftovers but there never is! I find it only makes 8 enchiladas though...
