I made this recipe with my kids but didn't have tortillas so we used tortilla chips instead. Turned out fantastic. I served with a side bowl of olive oil vinagrette that had diced tomatoes, green onions and a little cilantro in it. My kids loved it so much that the next day they begged me to make it again! Good recipe

I made this recipe last week and I thought it was absolutely great. I actually passed it on to my mexican friend who loves enchiladas but has a 2 year old and no time for prep these days. It was so easy and it tasted fabulous, just like an enchilada, minus the time investment. I love the idea below of substituting the tortillas for chips, that would make it perfecto! It is definitely not a meal that you want to make if you're looking for something that looks pretty. I did it in a casserole dish, cut it in to squares w/a pizza cutter and served. It did fall apart, but I wasn't looking to impress with presentation, so that was okay. I stored the rest for lunch all week and everyone at work kept asking what smelled so good. The other thing that I love is that it is packed with nutrient dense ingredients that have lots of fiber, whole products and protein. It's a perfect and healthy (if you go light on the cheese) family meal. I give it an a+++

this recipe was really yummy. I did add a few things to it like black olives, I also put enchilada sauce on bottom of cake pan so shells wouldn't stick. And on tortilla shells spread refried beans on them put chicken mixture in and topped with a little more enchilada sauce. cilantro and cheese

I LOVED this recipe. I'm new to cooking, so when I say this was easy to make. I mean it. The best thing for this recipe is to make sure you have all of your ingredients chopped up and ready to cook. Otherwise you might burn the meat if you’re off chopping more veggies. I also substituted the chicken with ground beef. And it was still great. One of the things I might changed about this is instead of having full corn tortilla on the bottom of the pan, I would make it have chips. Just because when I cooked it, it was hard to cut, as well eat. My family just ended up scraping off the tortilla and just using chips instead. Something to think about before you cook it. The taste was GREAT. And I’m a picky eater so to say that, it really means something. Try it! You’ll never want to lose this fabulous recipe.

My husband and I loved this recipe. I added green Chili Sauce to spice it up and it was even better. Yum. My kids didn't like it though. They are pretty picky eaters.

This was very easy to make and came out great! My friends loved it and I had a nice amount of leftovers for work. I also tried it with sour cream on the side and that was pretty good!

Great recipe. I left out the corn, and added some cooked white rice instead. I used some cumin and black bean sauce as well. Very yummy :)

I tried this recipe today because it sounded good and I had all the ingredients in my pantry. It tasted fine, I would make it again if I were in need of a quick meal, but I just found it okay. I wouldn't go out of my way and plan on making it. I found that it didn't come together at all, when you put it on your plate it just falls apart, it's just a bunch of cubed chicken and beans, there is really no need to put it in the oven, you could skip the tortillas (they're awkward as a crust anyways) melt the cheese on top of the stove and then maybe wrap it all in flour tortillas. That would be better I think. I would not make it to drop off at someone's house, it's just not that good; but it is an okay quick meal.
