Amber of AZ's Note:

Very easy! It could use a little more zip - as it stands it would be great for kids or people who don't like spicy food. The only green sauce I could find without MSG was the Archer Farms brand at Target and a 12 oz jar with all other ingredients the same filled 8 six-inch corn tortillas.

I love this recipe because it is so easy and so good. I used the salsa verde in a can from the Mexican aisle at the grocery store. I mixed half of the sauce with shredded chicken and about 1/4 can of black beans which is the mixture I used to stuff the enchiladas, then poured the rest over top. I didn't really dip the tortillas - I just poured a little bit of the sauce in the bottom of my pan to start with.
