My family loves this recipe! I did make a few changes... the sauce didn't turn out right when I followed the directions the first time, so the next time I just made a paste of the butter and flour, slowly added the broth (just like making gravy), and then when it thickened, I added the cheese. I also added 2 tbsp. of the mild green Tabasco sauce for extra kick! Even my 2 yr old loves it!

Nice dish! I baked this in 2 smaller square dishes and am freezing one since there are only 3 of us. I used whole wheat tortillas, rather than the corn, and a Mexican cheese blend. We enjoyed it, and I'll look forward to enjoying it again the next time I don't feel like cooking and just have to pull the other dish out of the freezer! Thanks!
