These funny 'enchiladas' are GREAT! In spite of what looked like a complicated recipe, they went together quite easily & TASTE WONDERFUL! I would never have thought of them as 'enchiladas', but then, what do I know! Definitely a recipe to keep! [Made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in this Spring's PAC]
